\"William<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

In 1892, John William Strutt, better known as Lord Rayleigh<\/a>, discovered a difference in the data on nitrogen gas in compounds and in the atmosphere that he attributed to a light gas included in chemical compounds of nitrogen, whereas Ramsay suspected that it was of a hitherto unknown heavy gas. After using two different methods to remove all known gases from the air, the two were able to announce in 1894 that they had found a chemically inert, monatomic gaseous element that made up almost 1% of the atmosphere. They named it after the Greek word for \"lazy,\" argon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1893, Ramsay released another inert gas from a mineral called cleveite, which turned out to be helium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1896, he published \"The Gases of the Atmosphere\" in which he indicated that by the positions of helium and argon in the periodic table, there could be at least three more noble gases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1898, working with Morris W. Travers, he isolated the elements neon, krypton, and xenon from the air, and in 1903, working with Frederick Soddy<\/a>, he showed that helium (along with a gaseous emanation called radon) is continually produced during radioactive decay of radium. It was a discovery of great importance for the understanding of nuclear reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1910, using small samples of radon, he showed that it is a sixth noble gas and provided further evidence that it was formed by emission from a helium nucleus and radium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He was appointed Sir in 1902 and two years later received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering the components of air and determining their position in the periodic table<\/a> of elements. Interestingly, his collaborator and friend John William Strutt received the Nobel Prize in Physics that same year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
