About the accents: This is not a mistake, it is on purpose. Please note that in Spanish some words have accents when asked in a question (I.e que, porque, qui...). Pay attention to the question mark.

Krypton belongs to the family known as the noble gases. This family also includes helium, neon, argon, xenon and radon. All are considered nonreactive, nonmetallic elements and have eight valence electrons.
Once thought to be completely inert, krypton is known to form a few compounds. Krypton difluoride (KrF 2) is the easiest krypton compound to make and gram amounts of it have been produced. For those that are curious, pictures of krypton gas and krypton plasma can be found in the Questions and Answers section of this site.
