Because they already have a full outer shell of electrons, which is the most stable configuration.
Electron configuration - they have the same number of elements in their outer 'electron shell'. This induces them to have similar bonding properties, and so elements in the same group are chemically similar.
The same number of electrons IN THEIR OUTER SHELL. Look up electron configuration for more detail.

They all have 2 electrons in their outer shells.
Periodic table was constructed by using electronic configuration . Elements have same outer shell electronic configuration were in same group . So they have similar chemical properties . If an unknown element will register in future , its properties are predicted with the help of its outer shell configuration.

Group 18 elements all have an outer shell of 8 electrons, s2 p6
Because they already have a full outer shell of electrons, which is the most stable configuration.
noble gases Helium has 2 valence electrons, whereas the rest have 8.
The core of the configuration is the same for all elements in a group, the outer shell electrons are also arranged similarly.
Electron configuration - they have the same number of elements in their outer 'electron shell'. This induces them to have similar bonding properties, and so elements in the same group are chemically similar.
No it will not because it has a filled outer layer/shell so it has a stable outer energy level as shown by its electronic configuration of 2:8:8
Where there are 8 electrons in the outer shell so a full shell. Elements are reactive when they need to lose or gain an electron. The noble gases are unreactive as they have a full outer shell.
The electron configuration for chlorine is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5.
