Noble gases have completely filled orbitals / energy levels. 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.

Are helium argon and neon inactive gases?

Yes, helium, argon, and neon are considered inactive gases because they are chemically inert, meaning they do not readily react with other elements to form compounds. They are also known as noble gases.


What are the inactive gases?

The inactive gases are the noble gases


Why do noble gases not bind with other elements?

Noble gases have completely filled electronic configuration and hence they are chemically inactive / inert / do not form bond with other elements.


Which periodic family is considered highly inactive?

The noble gases are considered highly inactive because they already have a full outer shell.


How active is noble gases?

Noble gases are chemically inert.


What are the gases that are considered inactive?

Some examples of inactive gases include nitrogen (N2), argon (Ar), helium (He), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and neon (Ne). These gases are considered inactive because they are stable and do not readily react with other elements under normal conditions.


Inactive gases are?

Inactive gases are gases that are chemically unreactive under normal conditions. They often include noble gases such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. These gases have a stable electron configuration and are generally non-reactive with other elements.


What is inactive gases?

Inert Or Noble


What are the gases are considered inactive and they do not react with other elements?

Noble gases are very unreactive because the valence electron shell is filled.


Which gas does not react with oxygen?

Noble gases are considered inactive and do not react with any other substance/element.


Why are noble gases chemically inactive?

The noble gasses all have a filled outer electron shell of eight electrons, except helium which has two electrons. Since their outer electron shells are filled, they are less likely to react 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
