The goal of every element is to complete its outer shell of electrons through reacting with other elements. And atom's outer shell can hold up to eight electrons. The elements of group 8 already have 8 electrons, so they have no reason to react with other elements. Because they don't react they're called noble gasses.

What is the name of the group of unreactive nonmetals includes argon?
group: 18 Noble Gases
What is argon's family?
Argon is in Group 18, the unreactive Noble Gases.
The most unreactive family of elements?
The Noble Gases, group 18
What is the most significant property of the group 18 on th periodic table?
Noble gases are extremely unreactive.
Why are all of the elements in group 18 relatively unreactive Where is those in group 17 are very reactive?
The noble gases have completely filled the outer shell of electrons; in the group 17 the situation is different.
The most unreactive family of gases?
The Noble Gas group, which is Group 18.
What is the name of the group with most unreactive elements?
Noble gases (or group 18 elements)
What is the name of the group of unreactive nonmetals includes argon?
group: 18 Noble Gases
What is argon's family?
Argon is in Group 18, the unreactive Noble Gases.
The most unreactive family of elements?
The Noble Gases, group 18
What is the chemical property of an element in group 18?
Noble gases are very unreactive.
What group consists of very unreactive gases?
Noble gases are unreactive. They are all in the far right column (group). Depending on the Periodic Table that you look at, it may be labeled group zero or group 18.
What is unreactive and has a full shell on the periodic table?
A noble gas is usually unreactive and has a filled valance electron shell. They are located in group 18 on the periodic table.
What is the number for the group of nonmetal elements that are almost completely nonreactive?
The elements that are almost completely unreactive are the noble gases in group 18.
What is the most significant property of the group 18 on th periodic table?
Noble gases are extremely unreactive.
Which elements are unreative?
The noble gases are almost chemically unreactive and they are located in group 18 of the periodic table.
What are the oxidation states of group 18 elements?
0, neither positive or negative. They are the noble gases, and as such, very unreactive
