No, "xeon" is not another name for "noble gases."
The noble gases are helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), radon (Rn), and ununoctium (Uuo). (Ununoctium is not a naturally-occurring element and only a few atoms of it have ever been produced.)

Do elements of the noble gas family form compounds?
Yes, noble gases can form compounds, but with great difficulty. And more so with the heavier gases (higher atomic number/weight) than with the lighter ones. The noble gases are generally considered to be inert, or lacking any reasonable way to form chemical bonds with other elements. That's what makes them noble or inert. Only in the laboratory can we "force" some inert gases to form compounds. And all these compounds are highly unstable.
What are the noble gases give example?
We know helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon as the inert or noble gases. You probably don't need examples since there are only six of these elements. Why not just list them all?
Why noble gases do not form ions?
They already have the perfect number of electrons in their topmost energy levels. hence they do not form ions. Noble Gases have no reaction to any of the elements under room temperature. However noble gases like krypton or xenon are known to form covalent compounds like KrF2, XeF4, XeOF4 etc.
What are the chemical interactions of noble gases?
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. But, noble gases like krypton and xenon will form covalent compounds like KrF2 or XeF2 or XeOF4 etc.
What compounds are formed from noble gases?
Because noble gases are very unreactive only a small number of compounds is known: halides, oxides, salts, especially from xenon. Some compounds are unstable.
What are 5 facts about xenon?
1.Xenon is used in manytouch screen cell phones2.Common uses are photographic flash, and general anaesthetics3.If inhaled, it can cause a persons voice to deepen4.The earth's atmosphere is 0.0000087% Xenon5.The only one of the noble gases to form a compound
Do xenon and radium bond well?
Xenon is a noble gas so it doesn't bond, but radium bonds pretty well Xenon is the only noble gas that bonds with a other element.
What are some things that contain krypton?
No. Krypton is one of the noble/inert gases, so it does not react with any other element (the exception to that rule is Xenon, which can form a compound with Fluorine, but this is irrelevant).
Do noble gasses combine with other elements?
yes, xenon can but only when forced to do so
Which group in the periodic table does not form compounds?
The group on the far right of the periodic table of elements will not bond to form compounds. These are the Noble Gases aka Inert Gases and are the elements of Group 18, which includes helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon, and element 118. I think that's all of them. I am not 100% confident that this list is entirely inclusive so there may be some other element(s) that do not form compounds. I am sure however that Noble Gases do not react due to the fact that their electron shells are full.

What can you predict about the properties of xenon and helium?
Helium and Xenon are both Noble(or inert) gases. They are very unreactive. Helium has no known compounds and exists only in its atomic state. Xenon can be forced to react with extremely reactive compounds like Fluorine to form XeF4 . But this reaction is extremely hard, because Xenon is so unreactive. They are both gases with very low boiling temperatures.

Is xenon only found in the atmosphere?
No. Traces of Xenon are also found in covalent boded form with oxygen, in quartz.
What noble gas is found only as a compound?
No noble gas is found as a compound. They have to be forced into forming compounds, and some cannot even be made so then.
How many bonds does Xe form?
It's electrons move to a higher orbital, making room for another elements electrons to bind with it. this is only a phenomenon found in Xe, no other noble gas has this property
