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 do not form compounds under normal conditions.

What is the chemical property of an element in group 18?

Noble gases are very unreactive.


Are noble gases reactive or unreactive?

Unreactive


Why are the noble gases unreactive and what properties make them so stable compared to other elements?

Noble gases are unreactive because they have a full outer electron shell, making them stable. This full shell makes it difficult for them to gain or lose electrons, which is necessary for chemical reactions. Additionally, noble gases have low electronegativity and ionization energy, further contributing to their stability.


Noble gases are in same group. why?

Noble gases are in the same group (Group 18) because they all have a full outer shell of electrons, making them very stable and unreactive. This results in similar chemical properties among the noble gases, leading to their placement in the same group on the periodic table.


Are noble gases very unreactive gases?

Correct.


How does having an octet effect noble gases behavior in chemical reactions?

The full octet means the element is inert (non-reactive.)


Can noble gases form chemical bonds with other elements?

No, noble gases do not typically form chemical bonds with other elements because they have a full outer electron shell, making them stable and unreactive.


Do all noble gases have similar chemical properties?

No; each chemical element has different properties.


Why don't the noble glass tend to form chemical bonds?

The noble gases are unreactive because their valence shells are full, making them stable.
