The nobel gasses can be made to react under somewhat extreme circumstances, but they do not readily react on their own with other elements because they have a complete outer shell, which is to say they have 8 electrons in their highest energy level. This means they are completely stable, neither looking to borrow electrons, nor to give any away.

What are the gasses in farts?

Some of it is atmospheric gasses, some of it (often a quite large part) is methane, and a small percentage is other organic compounds. The "other organic compounds" is the part that's responsible for the smell; methane itself is odorless.
