They are not very reactive and they do not form bonds with each other, so molecules of noble gases cannot be formed, there are only atoms, i.e. they are monatomic gases..
Up until 1962 no noble gas compounds were known however compounds of Argon, Krypton Xenon and Radon all form unstable compounds with fluorine.

An atom that is chemically unreactive?
Noble gases are usually inert. It is possible, however, to use a noble gas in a compound, such as XeF4, xenon tetrafluoride, but it is not common.
