hybridization - Are ther known compounds of Argon? What is their molecular geometry and hybridisation?


Can Argon hybridize orbitals and/or form covalent-like/ionic-like compounds? Is there any study of that? I would be happy to read concrete references.


What kind of molecular geometries for argon compounds are known or hypothesized at the current time?


Is there some peculiarity to apply something like VSEPR or molecular orbital theory to theoretical or experimentally known argon compounds?

Apparently the of last four, $\ce{Mg^2+}$ is closest in radius to $\ce{Li+}$. Is this true, and if so, why would a whole larger shell ($\ce{...
