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.

What is the biggest characteristic about noble gases?
They are stable.
Is a characteristic property of the noble gases?
they do not react chemically APEXXX
The most characteristic property of the noble gases is that they?
Noble gasses are not reactive. :)
What is the main characteristic that all the noble gases have in common?
the noble gases have octet configuration ie they have 8 electrons in their outermost shell ,so they are stable
Is incomplete number of electrons is a characteristic of noble gas?
No. The noble gases are largely nonreactive because their outermost energy levels are complete, making them stable by themselves.
The elements that do not ordinarily form compounds are?
Noble gases do not normally form compounds.
What happens when two noble gases are combined?
Noble gases do not react chemically with other noble gases.
What are the noble gases in Column 18 called?
inert gases / noble gases
What state are noble gases at room temperature?
Gases, hence noble "gases"
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.
How are noble gases different than noble gases?
it's not
How active is noble gases?
Noble gases are chemically inert.
