Group (or family) 18, also known as the noble gases, are elements that are completely stable and rarely react with other elements.

Will gold combine with other elements?

No, not that i know of, gold is highly unreactive.


What element is unreactant?

All the elements in the Inert Gases family (exc. Radon) are highly unreactive. The Inert Gases family occupies Group 18(0) of the Periodic Table. They each have 8 electrons in the outer shell. The Inert Gases Group contains;HeliumNeonArgonKryptonXenonRADON


What kind of nonmetal is xenon?

A colorless, odorless, highly unreactive gaseous element. Xenon and similar elements are called Noble Gases


What do not actively combine with other elements?

The Group 0 - Inert Gases group are all (exc. Radon) highly unreactive, and so don't chemcially combine with other elements.


Which elements will not form bonds to other elements?

Noble gases, such as helium, neon, and argon, typically do not form bonds with other elements because they already have a stable configuration of electrons in their outermost energy level. This makes them very unreactive.


Is nitrogen a part of the noble gas family?

No. It is however highly unreactive, similar to noble gases (except under extreme conditions)


What elements can be found in elemental form uncombined with other elements on earth?

Highly unreactive elements that will not chemically combine include: Platinum (Pt) Gold (Au) Helium (He) Argon (Ar) Krypton (Xe) Neon (Ne) The first two are unreactive because they are at the bottom of the metals reactivity series. The rest are unreactive because they are part of the inert gases.


Is lithium chemically unreactive?

No. Lithium is highly reactive.


Why does the elements of family 18 do not tend to form chemical reactions?

Elements in group 18, also known as the noble gases, do not tend to form chemical reactions because they have a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell of electrons. This makes them highly unreactive and inert, as they do not need to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve stability.


What family or group is made of elements with almost full electron energy levels?

The family of elements with almost full electron energy levels is the noble gases, which include helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. These elements have complete valence electron shells, making them highly stable and largely unreactive. This full outer electron configuration contributes to their lack of chemical reactivity under standard conditions.


Will radon combine with other elements?

Radon is a noble gas and is typically unreactive with other elements under normal conditions. However, it can form compounds with highly electronegative elements like fluorine under certain conditions.


On the periodic table what family is very in active?

The family of elements known as the noble gases is very inactive. Located in Group 18 of the periodic table, these gases, including helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon, have complete outer electron shells. This stable electron configuration makes them highly unreactive under normal conditions, as they do not readily form compounds with other elements.
