The noble gases (group 18) will not react with other elements or atoms of the same element. This is because they have a full outer shell and do not "need" to borrow or lose electrons.

How does elements combine to form elements why not compounds?

Elements combine to form compounds through chemical bonding, where atoms of different elements share or exchange electrons to achieve a stable configuration. This results in the formation of compounds with distinct properties different from the elements that make them up. Elements, on the other hand, do not combine to form other elements because they are unique substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical reactions.

What do elements combine to form?

Elements combine to form compounds through chemical reactions. These compounds have different properties than their individual elements, resulting in a wide range of substances found in nature and synthesized in laboratories.


Can all elements form compounds?

Compounds are combinations of elements. They are different from molecules in the fact that Compounds cannot be a combination of the same element ( O2 ) instead compounds are combinations of different elements ( CO2 )
