Neon is the second lightest noble gas, after helium, and it has an atomic number of 10. On the periodic table, it is identified with the symbol Ne. The noble gases were recognized in the late 1800s, when scientists realized that an entire class of gases was missing from the periodic table of elements.
This article is about the noble gas. For other uses, see Neon (disambiguation). Neon is a chemical element with symbol Ne and atomic number 10 and is a noble gas. Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas under standard conditions, with about two-thirds the density of air. It was discovered (along with krypton and xenon) in 1898 as one of the three residual rare inert elements remaining in dry air, after nitrogen, oxygen, argon and carbon dioxide were removed.
