neon has completely filled orbitals, obeys octet rule and is stable. hence it is chemically inert.

What is the most non-reactive family?
The noble gases are the least reactive among all chemical elements.
Is chlorine the most or least reactive of all elements?
Neither. Chlorine is among the most highly reactive nonmetal elements, but fluorine and oxygen are even more reactive, as are the heavier alkali and alkaline earth metals.
Is neon highly reactive?
No, not really. Neon is a Noble Gas meaning it has all the shells in its atom filled so it doesn't really share, gain, or lose electrons. Study has shown it could possibly combine with Fluorine.
What is the pale yellow gas considered the most reactive of all elements?
The halogen gas that is that most reactive of all elements is Fluorine
What is the least reactive substance known to man?
I believe it to be Argon The noble gases are all unreactive because their outer shells are all full. These include argon, krypton, radon, neon, helium and xenon.
How reactive is neon?
It is not reactive at all. It will not combine with other elements.
Which elements is stable neon carbon boron or fluorine?
Of those, neon is the most chemically stable (least reactive).But for elements, the term stable usually means non-radioactive, and all of these elements have stable isotopes.
What family is non reactive?
The noble gases are the least reactive among all chemical elements.
What is the most non-reactive family?
The noble gases are the least reactive among all chemical elements.
What are the least reactive element in the periodic table?
Noble gases are the least reactive elements in the periodic table because they have a full valence shell.The least reactive elements in the periodic table are the noble gases or sometimes the inert gases. These are the elements of Group 18, and they have full valence shells. They are not interested in loaning out or borrowning electrons, and are very stable.The gases helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon make up the inert gases. Wikipedia has a nice post on these interesting elements, and a link is provided.
Is fluorine in the same family as neon?
No- fluorine is a halogen and Neon is an inert or noble gas. Fluorine is one of the most reactive elements of all and Neon is the 2nd most unreactive after Helium. You can not get more different.
Is chlorine the most or least reactive of all elements?
Neither. Chlorine is among the most highly reactive nonmetal elements, but fluorine and oxygen are even more reactive, as are the heavier alkali and alkaline earth metals.
Which of the two halogens shown is more reactive?
The most reactive halogen, and one of the most reactive of all the elements, is fluorine. Reactivity in the halogen family continues in order from most reactive to least reactive with chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine.
Which element is the least reactive in period 4?
Noble gasses are least reactive of all the elements. So the least reactive element in the period 4 is Krypton. It is a noble gas with an atomic number of 36.
Most reactive gas?
The most reactive gas is known as fluorine. Its oxidizing abilities make it highly reactive due to its ability to create strong bonds with fellow atoms.
Is neon very reactive or is it not very reactive and why?
Neon is not reactive at all because it has a full p sublevel of electrons (8 valence electrons total). This is a very stable configuration, and as a result, neon is neither a reactant nor a product in normal chemical reactions.
The least reactive metal in group 1 of the periodic table?
Francium is considered the most reactive of the group 1 elements. This is because it is the largest of all elements in group 1, therefore takes the least amount of energy to lose an electron (Group 1 elements react by losing electrons.)
