They occupy the far right side of the Periodic Table which is column 18, they are called noble gases and there is 6 types:
Helium / He / 2
Neon / Ne / 10
Argon / Ar / 18
Krypton / Kr / 36
Xenon / Xe / 54
Radon / Rn / 86
Column 18, the most far right one: He, Ne, ...etc...., Rn
All the elements in a column (group) of the Periodic Table have the same amount of electrons in their outer shell and as you go down the group the amount of electron shells increases by one each time.
the far right column (family) called the noble gases
Group 18 on the Periodic Table contains the Inert Gases. Inert Gases tend to be unreactive. This group has the elements Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
Inert gases, or noble gases, make up the 18th column on the periodic table. The names of the gases (in order from top to bottom) are: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon.
No, neon is not a metal. It is a noble or inert gas. On the periodic table of elements, it's found in the last column on the right, which are the Group 18 elements.
group 18 elements. they are inert because they have completely filled orbitals and and stable or chemically inert.
Inert gasses do not react with other elements or compounds.
the far right column
The noble gases, in group 18 (the far right column), are mostly inert.
All of the elements in column 18 of the periodic table are noble gases. This means their outer electron shells are completely full and in most cases are inert.
Group 18 on the Periodic Table contains the Inert Gases. Inert Gases tend to be unreactive. This group has the elements Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.
Inert gases, or noble gases, make up the 18th column on the periodic table. The names of the gases (in order from top to bottom) are: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon.
No, neon is not a metal. It is a noble or inert gas. On the periodic table of elements, it's found in the last column on the right, which are the Group 18 elements.
Noble elements (elements in the column 8 of the periodic table) are intrinsically inert and mostly in gaseous state at room temperature (298K) and atmospheric pressure. Helium (He), Neon (Ne) and Argon (Ar) three of them. Resource: Any high school chemistry book

group 18 elements. they are inert because they have completely filled orbitals and and stable or chemically inert.
The halogen family make up the penultimate column in the periodic table and comprises of fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine.Additional information:Halogens are in the second column from the right on the periodic table of the elements, next to the inert gasses.
Xenon is in Group 18, the "inert" elements.
Inert means unreactive, and most of these gases never react.
