Because it is a noble gas, it is no reactive, as all its electron shells are filled.


Why does argon not combine readily with other elements?

It is non-reactive because it's shells are full. Argon has three electron shells. It's third shell is filled with eight electrons. That is why it does not easily combine with other elements.

What element has 3 full shells?

This question is unclear. If you mean 3 full electron shells and nothing else, then it would be argon. But every element after argon has 3 full electron shells also, but they also have other shells with electrons. If you mean a full 3rd energy shell such as in having 3d10 electrons, then it would be Zn but Zn also has 4s2 electrons. So, the question is a vague one.
