It is the inert gases or noble gases that are the elements that do not react with others in nature. These are the Group 18 elements. The valence band of each of these elements is completely full, and that gives rise to their inert characteristic. The inert gases, including helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon, don't want to form chemical bonds with other atoms because they are "happy" with their electron arrangements. We know in chemistry that electron shell configurations are the key to chemical behavior. Atoms loan, borrow or share electrons based on the number of electrons in their valence shell compared to how many the shell can hold. This is the key to understanding chemical bonding. The inert or noble gases have full outer shells, and they hang out along for that reason.

∙ 11y agoAny of the noble gases, helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon, at room temperature.
However at elevated temperature, xenon reacts with oxygen forming xenon oxides such as XeO, XeO2, XeO3.

Elements that can react with acid and alkali?
Elements that can react with acid and alkali are called amphoteric eg. Zn, Al, etc.
Why doesn't argon react with other elements?
It is a very stable element and one of the so called noble gasses.
Can silver be uesed with other elements?
Yes! Silver can react with other elements to form a compound
Why is argon least likely to react with other elements?
Argon is chemically inert due to the presence of completely filled orbitals. So it is does not react with other elements at STP.
What other element does americium react with?
Americium is a very reactive metal and can react with the majority of other chemical elements.
What are elements that don't react readily with other elements called?
inert
Elements react with other elements based on the number of what in their outer shell?
Elements react with other elements based on the number of electrons in their outer shell, also called valence electrons.
What nonmetals that do not react naturally with other elements?
Nonmetals that do not react naturally with other elements are inert. These nonmetals are called the noble gases and are in Group 18 (VIIIA) on the Periodic Table.
Which region of the periodic table is least likely to react with other elements?
Group-18 elements least react with other elements. They are inert in nature. They are called noble gases.Elements in group 18 are less likely to react with any other elements. This group is made out of the noble gases. Its members are He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn.
What gasses are concidered inactive. They do not react with other elements?
it is called noble gases!:)
What happens to the properties of elements when they react with other elements?
what happens to the properties of elements when they react with each other element
What are elements that don't really react readily with other elements?
Generally, those are the elements in Group 18, called the noble gases.
Elements that do not typically react with other elements are known as?
Elements in the Periodic Table that are not reactive are called the Noble Gases.
What are noble gases that do not react with other elements called?
All noble gases don't react with other elements. Noble or inert gases don't react with other elements because their outer electron shells are completely full. However, the heavier noble gases actually can be forced to react with very electronegative elements like oxygen and fluorine. However, they don't do so readily.
Noble gases don't need to react with other elements which in chemistry its called what?
inert
Why gold and platinum are called noble metals?
Because they don't react with other elements.
Which elemetns are least likely to react with other elements?
These are the so-called noble gases.
