Uses: Neon is used glow lamps, electron tubes, signs, plasma studies, fluorescent starter tubes, cryogenic refrigeration and gas lasers. Neon is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless monatomic gas, belonging to the Group VIIIA elements, called noble gases. Neon, the name of which is derived from the Greek word neos, new, is present in some minerals, but its only commercial source is the atmosphere, of which it comprises 18 parts per 1,000,000 by volume.
All of the noble gases except for radon have stable isotopes. Neon signs do not use just neon gas, but a mixture of different noble gases and other elements to create bright lights of different colors. Noble gases are often used to create a safe or inert atmosphere due to their stable nature.
