Xenon's symbol, amount of protons neutrons and electrons, atomic number

and mass, and block configuration

Xenon’s atomic number is 54. Xenon has an atomic mass of 131.29. It is in the 5th period on the periodic table. Xenon's Group number 18. Its symbol is Xe. It is in the p block. Thenumber of protons is 54. The Electrons 54, and the Neutrons 77. The number of valence electrons are 18. Xenons boiling, melting points density, chemical properties and orbital notation Xenon is a colorless non-metal. It has a boiling point of -108 degrees C. Xenon has a melting point of -111.8 degrees C. The density of Xenon is 3640 kg m-3. Xenon is inert to many elements which means it wont react with them. Xenon is highly explosive with oxygen (XeO4), (XeO3). Xenons orbital notation is 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 3d10, 4s2, 4p6, 4d10, 5s2, 5p6. Xenon's discovey, how it is made, and the price Sir William Ramsey and Morris Travers discovered xenon in 1898. It was found in the residue of liquid evaporating air. Used in space thrusters. It is produced by the residue in liquid air after it has been fractionally distilled. Xenon is also found in the atmosphere of earth and mars. It is used for probes, deep sea lights, and it is used for ion engines. $120 per 100g.
