Ionic Charges and Group Properties

The video tutorial explains the ionic charge of xenon, highlighting its position in group 18 of the periodic table. Xenon typically has an ionic charge of zero because it does not form bonds with other elements under normal conditions. The video also covers general trends in ionic charges across different groups in the periodic table, emphasizing that group 18 elements, including xenon, are generally non-reactive.
