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.

∙ 12y agoThe elements usually react if they have tendency to gain or lose more electrons. For example Sodium has atomic no. 11 and it has the tendency to lose electron in order to complete its octate. But noble gases such as helium have 2 electrons donot have the tendency to gain or lose electrons since its duplete is already complete.

What are noble gases that do not react with other elements called?
All noble gases don't react with other elements. Noble or inert gases don't react with other elements because their outer electron shells are completely full. However, the heavier noble gases actually can be forced to react with very electronegative elements like oxygen and fluorine. However, they don't do so readily.
The noble gases include helium neon argon krypton xenon and radon. What property do these elements share?
They readily form compounds with other elements.
What is group 18 called and why?
Group 18 elements are called noble gases. They are called noble gases because they are generally unreactive and do not readily form compounds with other elements. Their outermost electron shells are completely filled, which contributes to their stability and lack of reactivity.
Elements that do not typically react with other elements are known as?
Elements in the Periodic Table that are not reactive are called the Noble Gases.
What distinguishes noble gases from other nonmetals?
Unlikely other elements in the periodic table, noble gases rarely form compounds with other elements.

What are elements that don't really react readily with other elements?
Generally, those are the elements in Group 18, called the noble gases.
The noble gases include helium neon argon krypton xenon and radon. What property do these elements share?
They readily form compounds with other elements.
What are the elements in Group 17-18 called?
The Group 18 elements are called the noble gases or sometimes inert gases. Wikipedia has information on the noble gases, and a link is provided.

What are elements that rarely combined with other elements are?
The noble gases.
What are gases that do not form compounds with other elements called?
the noble gases
Which region contain stable noble inert gases in other words which elements do not react with other element?
Noble gases are placed in the group 18 of the periodic table of elements; from about 50 years noble gases are not considered as totally inert elements.
What are elements called that rarely join with other elements?
Noble gases.
What group off elements do not react with other elements?
Noble Gases
