Radon is the heaviest of the inert gases. The inert gases are also known as the noble gases and are the lightest elements.
Radon. (Though with the discovered of Ununoctium that should technically be the heaviest element in the noble gas group)

Radon
Radon is the name of the heaviest noble gas.
Noble gases belong to group 0 and can be found on the extreme right column of the periodic table of elements. The heaviest noble gas would be radon, whose atomic mass is still uncertain. The element which appears below radon in the column, ununoctium, has not been confirmed as a noble gas.
As far as "inert gases" (noble gases), the heaviest is the radioactive gas radon (atomic number 86, only natural isotope 222Ra).Referring to "inert" precious metals, the heaviest is gold (atomic number 79). Precious metals are not non-reactive and may either oxidize or dissolve in acids.
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.

Radon is the name of the heaviest noble gas.
Noble gases belong to group 0 and can be found on the extreme right column of the periodic table of elements. The heaviest noble gas would be radon, whose atomic mass is still uncertain. The element which appears below radon in the column, ununoctium, has not been confirmed as a noble gas.
Down the group the density generally increases. Thus radon will be the heaviest element.

Noble gases do not normally form compounds.
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.
Radon is the heaviest member of the noble gases group.Position in the Mendeleev periodic table of the elements: group 18, period 6, block p.

Gases, hence noble "gases"
The Group 18 elements are called the noble gases or sometimes inert gases. Wikipedia has information on the noble gases, and a link is provided.
