Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.
Other elements have incomplete energy levels and are generally reactive.

∙ 8y agoNoble gases are inert meaning that they are chemically unreactive. This is because the noble gases' valence shells are full of electrons, impeding upon their ability to bond and react with other atoms/molecules.

∙ 11y agoNoble gases differ because they obtain a full valence electrons of 8 on the outer shell. OCTET RULE: states that every element aspires to be a noble gas and have a full valence level.

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 distinguishes noble gases from other nonmetals?
Unlikely other elements in the periodic table, noble gases rarely form compounds with other elements.
What is different about the noble gases?
They are gases that do not form normal chemical bonds with more than a very few other elements.
What are gases that do not form compounds with other elements called?
the noble gases
Which region contain stable noble inert gases in other words which elements do not react with other element?
Noble gases are placed in the group 18 of the periodic table of elements; from about 50 years noble gases are not considered as totally inert elements.
What are the elements in Group 17-18 called?
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.

What are gases that do not form compounds with other elements called?
the noble gases
Which region contain stable noble inert gases in other words which elements do not react with other element?
Noble gases are placed in the group 18 of the periodic table of elements; from about 50 years noble gases are not considered as totally inert elements.
What are elements called that rarely join with other elements?
Noble gases.
What group off elements do not react with other elements?
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.
Do the noble gases react easily with other elements?
No
What elements are relatives to argon?
The other noble gases.
