Atoms gain, lose or share electrons and try to attain noble gas configuration.
Noble Gases: Because Noble Gases are already in a stable form, they are not as likely to bond with other atoms as are those farther from a stable form. Noble Gases are found in group VIII, which is the far rightmost column.
Yes, the outermost energy level of the atoms of the noble gases are filled, meaning that they have the maximum number of electrons. This is why noble gases are stable and unreactive. The atoms of reactive elements share or transfer electrons in order to fill their outermost energy levels, making them stable like the noble gases.
Most single atoms are unstable and must undergo a chemical reaction in order to become stable. The noble gases, however, can exist as single atoms, because they have filled valence shells and are therefore stable on their own.
Yes. All noble gases are mono atomic. 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.
Potassium and chlorine are the only two that can.

Atoms or molecules do chemical reactions to be stable, noble gasses are already stable, so they do not react with other molecules to form chemical bonds

Noble gases are generally unreactive due to their full outer electron shells, making them stable. However, under certain conditions such as high pressure or high temperature, noble gases can react with atoms of other elements to form compounds. This occurs as these conditions can force electrons from the noble gas to form bonds with other atoms, allowing them to combine.
All atoms tend to have a stable structure similar to that of noble gases.
Noble gases does not easily combine with other elementsbecause they are stable and have complete outermost shell.
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 are monoatomic.
The "Noble gases" of group VIII are unreactive, because they are stable, due to their electron arrangements. If an atom has a full outer shell, it is "happy" and will not bond with other atoms.
I think you mean the Ideal or Noble gases. Column 18 , or '8' , in 'old money'.
