- Chemical Properties: oxidation- oxygen will not react with neon in typical conditions. Re-activity- Neon is chemically inactive. Under low pressure, it glows a bright orange/red if an electric current is passed through it. There are no acid compounds. Neon is produced by the fractionation of air.
- Neon is used to make neon signs, glow lamps, electron tubes, plasma studies, fluorescent starter tubes, gas lasers
- Neon does not combine with any other element because it is a noble gas and it is non reactive.
- Isotopes: Ne-20, Ne-21, Ne-22
