Xenon is generally chemically inert at STP. But under extreme conditions of high temperature it reacts with fluorine and oxygen forming compounds like XeOF2, XeF4, etc.
It is one of the least reactive elements.
In its ground state, all of its electron shells are full, with no electrons left over.

The activity (or reactivity) series determines whether or not a metal will replace another one in a replacement reaction.See the Related Questions to the left for more information about the activity series.
Xenon as it is a noble gas. Noble gases are inert and do not react with anything. Selenium is a solid Chlorine is a green coloured highly reactive poisonous gas. Carbon is a non-metallic solid.

In the airXenon is a trace gas in Earth's atmosphere, occurring in one part in twenty million.It is obtained as a byproduct from the liquefaction and separation of air. Xenon gas is available commercially in cylinders at high pressureXenon is regarded as a poison in nuclear engineering as it has a high neutron absorption cross section which lowers the reactivity of the core. Xe-135 is the cause of this loss in reactivity. Xenon poisoning is the reason why if a reactor goes down there are only 6 hours before an adjustment can be made and the reactor restarts otherwise, the reactor cannot start for over 4 days.Keep in mind that Xenon, like all elements,will have negative effects on the body if you are exposed or consume too much of it, but the trace amounts in the atmosphere are nothing to worry about.
