Noble Gases
A very low chemical reactivity as for noble gases or platinum metals.
The term noble is old and today inadequate.The so-called noble gases have the outer electron shell full, with 8 electrons; this structure lead to a very low chemical reactivity but now they are not all considered as inert elements.Compounds have been made with Krypton, Xenon and Radon. None have yet been made for Argon, Neon or Helium.
The valence electron shell of noble gases id completely filled; as a consequence the affinity for electrons and the chemical reactivity are at an extremely low level.
Far right in group 18, the noble gases
Yes. They are also referred to as the inert gases.
Noble Gases
The noble gases, which is the 18th family in the periodic table, the family on the far right, is very stable and does not react readily, due to the fact that their outer shells are filled with the maximum number of electrons which can be in that shell.
"Noble" gases have the outer electron shell full, with 8 electrons; this structure lead to a very low chemical reactivity but now they are not considered as inert elements.

Far right in group 18, the noble gases
Yes, helium is part of the noble gases family. The noble gases are a group of elements that are colorless, odorless, and have low chemical reactivity. They are located in Group 18 (VIII A) of the periodic table.
Noble gases have a very low chemical reactivity and have copletely filled the outer shell of elctrons.
