Elements in group 18 are very unreactive they are said to be inert you call these the?

Group 18 (also known as group 0) element don't react much as they have a full outer shell of electrons.
Some element in group 8 include: Helium, Neon, Argon and Krypton
GROUP 18 IS ALSO KNOWN AS NOBLE GASES OR INERT GASES

∙ 11y agoGroup 18 are the noble gases. They are typically chemically inert and do not react with other materials. This is because they have a stable valence electron configuration.

Is xenon man made?
No, Xenon is a naturally occurring gas. Its location on the Periodic Table (Group 18 or Period 8A, however you want to call it) is in the Noble Gases group. It is inert and found in the atmosphere.
What are all the element that in group 6 call?
All the elements in group 6 are called the transition metals. This is also true for groups 3-12.
Elements in group 18 are very nonreactive .They are said to be inert.We call these the?
The Inert or "Noble" gasses. Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon are the inert gasses. The "inert" gas Radon is chemically inert, but is radioactive. Radon has a half-life of four days. Because of its radioactivity, radon is hazardous when concentrated. Where the soil contains trace amounts of radium, thorium and uranium, basements may tend to harbor unsafe concentrations of Radon gas; the radioactivity being breathed into the lungs increased the risk of lung cancer. Inexpensive radon detectors can let you know if your basement gathers radon. If so, a ventilation fan to prevent the heavy radon from accumulating might be advisable.
Which elements have one valence electron?
In addition to hydrogen, all elements in Group I of the periodic table have one valence electron. They are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The farther you move right on the periodic table the more valence electrons. For example, elements in Group VII have 8 valence electrons except helium.
What do you call the elements or molecules that go into a reactions?
You might mean reactants.
What do you call the elements in group 18?
Group 18, or group VIII B depending on the periodic table you are using is called the Noble gas group. It is called such because it is Inert and has complete outer shells (No valence electrons or 8 vslence electrons if you think of it this way). Inert means, very unreactive, quite the opposite of the Alkaline Metals who are Incomplete and Very reactive and unstable.
Is it appropriate to refer to group viii elements as inert gases?
As long as you're referring to the rightmost group (starting with Helium) then yes, they are referred to as Noble/Inert gases.Note: Many scientists will call it group 18 instead of group 8.
What do we call the elements that react?
Most elements will react with at least one other substance. Certain groups of elements have certain substances that they react or don't react with. For Example, Group 1 - Alkali Metals all react vigourously with water. The Inert Gases (exc. Radon) are all highly unreactive and react with a very small amount of substances, if any.
What is the atom called if the outer shell is full of electrons?
A full outer electron shell, the so-called valence shell, creates an inert gas in those elements (the inert or noble gases). In other elements, what is called "inert gas configuration" will apear in the Halogens (the Group 17 elements) and some Group 16 elements. When they "borrow" an electron or electrons in an ionic bond, they do so to achieve "inert gas configuration" by "filling" their valence shell with the borrowed electrons.
What do you call the 18 vertical columns of periodic table?
The vertical columns are referred as noble elements. They are also called inert elements.
What do we call the group 1 elements?
The Alkali Metals
What do you call the table used to group atoms?
The Periodic Table of Elements
What is call metal?
A group of elements in the periodic table is called metals.
Is xenon man made?
No, Xenon is a naturally occurring gas. Its location on the Periodic Table (Group 18 or Period 8A, however you want to call it) is in the Noble Gases group. It is inert and found in the atmosphere.
What do you call compounds composed of neutral particles?
Inert
What is the family that contains very reactive elements such as F Cl BR I?
We call them halogens.they are in the 17th group.
What do you call the atoms in family 1?
The elements (not atoms) in family 1 (group I) are called alkali metals.
