Consider the following properties of the noble gases :
$I$ : They readily form compounds which are colourless
$I I$ : They generally do not form ionic compounds
$I I I$ : Xenon has variable oxidation states in its compounds
$I V$ : The smaller $H e$ and $N e$ do not form clathrate compounds.
Select correct properties.

Solution

The correct option is B $I I, I I I, I V$
$(I)$ They do not form compounds readily as they are chemically inert on account of stable electron configuration.
$(I I), (I I I) a n d (I V)$ are correct statement.
