Argon Princess

This cartoon address the idea that argon is princess. This is a play on words because Argon categorized as one of the noble gasses. The queen is also saying “I need nothing. I yield nothing.” This is another reference to the gases properties. Argon is categorized as a noble gas because it has eight valence electrons, which is a full valence shell. This is the most stable structure and what all atoms strive for. Many other atoms bond together in oder to complete their valence shell. Due to this fact, the noble gasses don’t need to interact with other atoms because they are already full. This is why the noble queen doesn’t attract or repel others.
