Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. 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.

∙ 13y agoNoble gases are gases that share similar characteristics. When under standard conditions, they are odorless, colorless, monatomic gases, with very low chemical reactivity. There are six noble gases. Which include:
- helium (He),
- neon (Ne),
- argon (Ar)
- krypton (Kr)
- xenon (Xe)
- radon (Rn).

∙ 11y agoAll noble gases have completely filled orbitals / electron shells. They are stable and chemically inert (non-reactive). So generally they will not accept / gain / share electrons.

What happens when two noble gases are combined?
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.
What are two noble gases that doesn't reacts with anything?
That should be the first two noble gases: Helium and Neon. These two are chemically inert and do not react with anything.
What are two types of gases?
halogens and noble

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.
