    Given below are two statements:

    Statement I: Noble gases have very high boiling points.

    Statement II: Noble gases are monoatomic gases. They are held together by strong dispersion forces. Because of this they are liquefied at very low temperature. Hence, they have very high boiling points.

    In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

    Which of the following elements is found in radioactive minerals e.g. pitchblende, monazit,e and deveite etc.

    The correct electronic configuration of chromium is 

    Correct electronic configuration of copper will be -

    Correct statement for$\mathrm{Cr}^{+2}$ and $\mathrm{Mn}^{+3}$ will be - 

    d - block elements for coordination compounds, because -

    Uses of Noble Gases

    Helium is a non-inflammable and light gas. Hence, it is used in filling balloons for meteorological observations. It is also used in gas-cooled nuclear reactors. Liquid helium (b.p. 4.2 K) finds use as a cryogenic agent for carrying out various experiments at low temperatures. It is used to produce and sustain powerful superconducting magnets which form an essential part of modern NMR spectrometers and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems for clinical diagnosis. It is used as a diluent for oxygen in modern diving apparatus because of its very low solubility in blood.

    Neon is used in discharge tubes and fluorescent bulbs for advertisement display purposes. Neon bulbs are used in botanical gardens and in greenhouses.

    Argon is used mainly to provide an inert atmosphere in high-temperature metallurgical processes (arc welding of metals or alloys) and for filling electric bulbs. It is also used in the laboratory for handling substances that are air-sensitive. There are no significant uses of Xenon and Krypton. They are used in light bulbs designed for special purposes.
