Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which statement about the noble gases is correct?

  1. They have a full outer shell of electrons
  2. They are very reactive elements
  3. They form ions easily
  4. They exist as diatomic molecules
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: AThey have a full outer shell of electrons
Award 1 mark for recognising that noble gases have a full outer shell of electrons, which explains their lack of reactivity. B is incorrect because noble gases are unreactive due to their stable electron configuration. C is incorrect because noble gases do not form ions as they already have a stable electron arrangement. D is incorrect because noble gases exist as single atoms (monatomic), not diatomic molecules.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A student investigates the reactivity of different elements by attempting to react them with dilute hydrochloric acid. The student uses magnesium, copper, and a sample of a noble gas. Which observation would the student make with the noble gas?

  1. No reaction occurs
  2. A vigorous reaction occurs with bubbles of gas
  3. A slow reaction occurs with a colour change
  4. A precipitate forms
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: ANo reaction occurs
Award 1 mark for recognising that no reaction occurs. Noble gases are unreactive because they have a full outer shell of electrons and do not readily gain, lose, or share electrons. B is incorrect because this describes the reaction of reactive metals like magnesium with acid. C is incorrect because noble gases do not react. D is incorrect because no chemical reaction occurs to form a precipitate.

CIE IGCSE Chemistry: Group 0: the noble gases FAQ

How many CIE IGCSE Chemistry questions on Group 0: the noble gases are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Group 0: the noble gases for CIE IGCSE Chemistry, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CIE paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CIE IGCSE students preparing for Chemistry?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Group 0: the noble gases practice with other Chemistry topics or even switch to a totally different CIE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Group 0: the noble gases questions aligned to the official CIE IGCSE Chemistry syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Chemistry specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CIE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CIE.
How is Group 0: the noble gases typically tested on CIE IGCSE Chemistry papers?
Group 0: the noble gases appears across multiple question types on real CIE IGCSE Chemistry papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
