Noble gases exist at mind-bogglingly low temperatures. To prove something's malleable, you have to hammer it or something. If you could obtain a solid noble gas, one whack of a hammer would be enough to literally vaporize all hopes of proving it was malleable. How many licks does it take? The world may never know.
There are 8 valence electrons in the noble gases, the family of elements furthest to the right on the periodic table.
noble gases are inert therefore they posses zero valency
Unlike metals, most nonmetals are gases at room temperature.
Noble gases doesn't form many compounds because they are extremely unreactive.

Nonmetals are gases but also solids.
the neon family (the noble gases) have 8 valence electrons.
Many nonmetals are gases.
Uranium is a reactive metal and can react with all nonmetals and metalloids (excepting noble gases); also many alloys of uranium are known.

There are 6 noble gases: helium, neon, argon, krypton, argon and radon
Noble gases doesn't form many compounds because they are extremely unreactive.
the noble gases, krypton, xenon and radon are larger than bromine
