1 What is Argon? By Matthew Prell

2 What Are Elements? Definition: A element is a substance in which all the atoms in it are the same kind I will be presenting the structure, history, and importance of Argon.

3 Argon’s atom - - - - - - P=18 - - - - - - N=22 - - - - - -

4 What is the structure of Argon?
a light noble gas that can glow purple and blue under an electricle charge 18 protons, 18 electrons, 22 neutrons Atomic weight: Atomic number: 18 Symbol: Ar

5 What is the history of Argon?
Discovered by Sir William Ramsay and Lord Rayleigh in 1894 Argon was discovered by taking away air and was left with a substance stronger the nitrogen

6 Why is Argon important? Uses: inert shielding gas in high temputrue industrial process and in most electric light bulbs Uses in past: nothing Uses in future: I predict that Argon will be used fully in blue or purple light bulbs because it glows purple and blue under an electrical charge

7 Interesting Facts Argon was the first noble gas so it started the noble gas column Atomic radius: 174 Pm Melting point: degrees Celsius Boiling point: dredgers Celsius Argon is radioactive

8 Conclusion I learned all about argon, well not all, but a lot. I learned its uses, origin, meaning, and much more. I learned that hydrogen, argon, and fluorine (HArF) at -265 digrees Celsius makes argon fluorohydride. Also that argon glows blue and purple. There’s a lot to know and its very interesting so I recommend learning about it.
