This is because they have a complete valence shell.
Noble gases are closer to being stable in terms of their electrons than other elements, thus making them less inclined to react with other elements.

∙ 11y agoNoble 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.

∙ 11y agonoble gases are non reactive because their number of electrons and number of protons are in equilibrium, so in other words they are considered happy. they neither loose or want any electrons.

What is an element with a full valence shell and is very nonreactive?
These are the noble gases.
Noble gases are chemically?
Noble gases are chemically inert. They have completely filled orbitals, hence are generally non-reactive (or chemically inert).

Noble gasses are found in group number 8A or 18. There :)
What is the family of elemnts in nonreactive gases called?
Noble gases
What is another word for chemically nonreactive?
inert as in the inert gases or "noble" gases

The noble gases are almost completely nonreactive for this reason they are sometimes called?
Inert Gases
What is an element with a full valence shell and is very nonreactive?
These are the noble gases.
Why are noble gas nonreactive?
Having the outer shell of electrons filled noble gases are very stable.
What is the name of the groups of elements that are particularly nonreactive?
Noble gases. Group 18. ;]
Group 8A also referred to as Group 18 elements on the periodic table share which characteristics?
The group 18 elements, also called the noble gases, are gaseous elements, completely nonreactive, with a full, stable valence shell. They were the last elements to be discovered because they're inert.
