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.

The most characteristic property of the noble gases is that they?
Noble gasses are not reactive. :)
What is the most distinctive property of noble gases is that they are called what?
noble gases are also called inert gases due to their lack of reactivity
What familyof coumpounds is most likely to be relatively unreactive?
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.
Are the most chemically active solids are found in the noble gas family?
Noble gases are all gases and not solids. In addition they are generally chemically inert as they have completely filled orbitals. Also the most active solids are generally found in group 1
How do the properties of the halogens and noble gases compare?
They are completely different Noble gases are colorless, monoatomic gases; the halogens are diatomic, colored and there form at room temperature is F, gas, Cl, gas, Br, liquid I, solid. Nobel gases are chemically unreactive, helium and neon have no known compounds, a few very reactive compounds are known for the rest. The halogens are all reactive, fluoringe is the most reactive. One or more of the halogens will form compounds with all of the other elements apart from the noble gases. (apart from He and Ne)
The most characteristic property of the noble gases is that they?
Noble gasses are not reactive. :)
What property is most useful for the identification of sulfur?
It is the characteristic
What is the most abundant element of the nobel gases?
Ar is most abundant in.Its percentage in atmosphere is 0.94%
What is an element that isn't chemically active?
The nobel gases for the most part. He, Ne, etc
What is the element that has a high ionization energy and tends to be chemically inactive would most likely be?
Nobel gases
What is a property of science and what are the most important things about them?
A property of science is a characteristic of something, like the color of a lid.
What is the most distinctive property of noble gases is that they are called what?
noble gases are also called inert gases due to their lack of reactivity
What is the most important property of the noble gases?
All contain a full outer shell of electrons
What familyof coumpounds is most likely to be relatively unreactive?
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.
What is a characteristic that helps identify something?
most often the charecteristic which we notices the colour of the object,then its shape,then its smell[if it have], hardnessand thickness, etc.......
Which property can most easily distinguish chlorine from other gases?
Chlorine has a specific, strong, unpleasant odor.
Which property can most easily distinguish chlorine from the other gases?
This is probable the strong odor and green color.
