About the accents: This is not a mistake, it is on purpose. Please note that in Spanish some words have accents when asked in a question (I.e que, porque, qui...). Pay attention to the question mark.

Krypton belongs to the family known as the noble gases. This family also includes helium, neon, argon, xenon and radon. All are considered nonreactive, nonmetallic elements and have eight valence electrons.
Like its fellows, krypton is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, noble gas that occurs in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Like the other noble gases, it too is useful in lighting and photography, and its high light output in plasmas allows it to play an important role in many high-powered lasers.
