As anyone would guess, every atom has a group name assigned, even Krypton. But how do we know what is the group name for an atom of Kr?
First of all, if we know the atom symbol (or name), let's say Kr, we can open any periodic table and search for Krypton. If the periodic table is complete just scroll up and read the number on the top (from 1 to 18).
In the case of Krypton the group number is 18. However there is a lot of funny facts about Krypton that most people don't know. Shall we have a look?

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
