Noble gases have completely filled orbitals are are stable. they do not donate electrons and hence are not included in ionization energy trend.

Which element has the lowest ionization energy halogens metals non metals or noble gases?
Metals have the least ionization energy
Elements with the highest ionization energy and thus the lowest reactivity are non-metals?
Noble gases
Why do noble gases not have listed ionization energies?
The noble gases of each period have the highest ionization energies in their periods. Refer to the related link to see a graph showing the ionization energies of the elements across each period.
Do noble gases have high ionization energies?
Yes they do
Explain why the noble gases have high ionization energies?
Noble gases have filled shells, which is the most stable configuration for an atom. Removing an electron from a noble gas would increase the energy more than if you removed an electron from, for example, nitrogen.
Which group requires the highest ionization energy?
noble gases
Which element has the lowest ionization energy halogens metals non metals or noble gases?
Metals have the least ionization energy
Elements that have the highest first ionization energy?
Helium (He) has the highest first ionization energy. Ionization energy increase as you go across the periodic table from left to right

Which group of elements has very high ionization energies and very low electron affinities?
Group 8 (noble gases) have the highest first ionization energy because they are already stable and don't want to lose any electrons. Ignoring the noble gases, however, group 7 halogens (F, Cl, Br, I, etc.) have the highest first ionization energy. That's because these elements have seven valence electrons, and they don't want to give up any electrons - they want another one!
Which noble gas has the lowest ionization energy?
Among the noble gases, radon has the largest size and hence will have the lowest ionisation energy
What element in period 3 has the highest second ionization energy?
Fluorine because it is the furthest right on the periodic table. Do no include noble gases in energies.
Does the first ionization energy increase or decrease from top to bottom for the noble gas family?
The first ionization energy decrease from top to bottom for the noble gas family.
Ionisation energy of noble gases?
noble gases have the maximum ionisation energy. helium has the highest ionisation energy
