      Hi Tapo

      well I guess farts can be pretty unusual gases ha ha, seriously though I think the noble gases are pretty cool. The noble gases are unusual because under normal conditions they cant share electrons meaning that they can’t join up with other atoms to form molecules. They just chill out alone – they are pure gases.

      The noble gases are Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon (which is radio active). You also get elemental gases like oxygen (2 oxygen atoms together) and “compound” gases such as Carbon Dioxide (one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms together)

      senga 🙂
