Do inert gases ignite spontaneously?

No. Inert gasses cannot ignite at all. They very rarely undergo reactions of any sort.


How are metals and non metals recognized?

Metals have certain features which make them easy to recognize. They have a metallic luster, and they are very good conductors of electricity. They undergo chemical reactions in which they lose electrons. Non metals characteristically do not have a metallic luster, do not conduct electricity very well, and they undergo chemical reactions in which they gain electrons (or in the case of inert gases, they don't undergo any chemical reactions).


Which elements on periodic table undergo fewest chemical reactions?

Noble gases. They have a stable octet so they don't want to react.


What else keeps the sun's gases in motion?

Chemical reactions


Are gases always soluble in each other?

Generally gases are miscible in each other; sometimes chemical reactions occur.

These are gases or particles evolved during chemical reactions.


What keeps the suns gases in motion?

Chemical reactions


Atoms that are known as inert or noble rarely undergo reactions because?

Noble gases are non-reactive due to their stability. The outer most shell shoud have 8 electrons to be stable and all the elements in the eighth group have 8 electrons in their outer most shell so they do not need to take part in chemical reactions to become stable THAT is why they are non reactive!


Which group undergoes the fewest chemical reactions?

What were the noble gasses originally called?

Inert gases, because at that time it was believed that these gases had no chemical reactions at all.

These products are the result of the chemical reaction. They may be gases, solid precipitates etc.
