The class of noble gases (Helium, Neon etc. in group 18)
There are two groups that come to mind when talking stability: the noble gases and the coinage metals. The noble gases (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe, and Rn) are very chemically stable and do not readily form compounds. Note that although Radon is chemically stable, it's not stable from a nuclear standpoint and will decay (but it is not reactive in the chemical sense).
The coinage metals (such as gold, silver, and copper) are very unreactive. Note that the further an element is from Au on the Periodic Table, the more reactive it is (obviously the Noble gases do not follow this trend).

Which element in group VIII are very stable?
all elements in group 8 are very stable as they have 8 electrons in their outermost electron shell, satisfying the octet rule. They are very stable and are called noble gas. they exist in a monoatomic gas.
Why nitrogen is sparingly soluble in water?
N2 is a very stable, nonreactive , non-polar gas so is almost insoluble in water.
What column in the periodic chart contains the atoms with an ideal electron configuration?
I think you mean the Ideal or Noble gases. Column 18 , or '8' , in 'old money'.
What makes group 18 gases. noble?
noble gases are all very stable because they each have the maximum amount of electrons in their outer shell (8 for all except helium which has 2) they are also nonreactive and cannot form compounds
What are very stable and have low reactivity?
The noble gases, which is the 18th family in the periodic table, the family on the far right, is very stable and does not react readily, due to the fact that their outer shells are filled with the maximum number of electrons which can be in that shell.
Which family is very stable and nonreactive?
Elements in group 18 of the periodic table.
What have a full set of electrons on their outermost energy level?
The noble gases (group 18/VIIIA/0) are naturally occurring elements that have a full valence shell with eight valence electrons (an octet), except for helium which has two valence electrons (a duet). This makes these elements very stable and very nonreactive.
Which element in group VIII are very stable?
all elements in group 8 are very stable as they have 8 electrons in their outermost electron shell, satisfying the octet rule. They are very stable and are called noble gas. they exist in a monoatomic gas.
Why are noble gas nonreactive?
Having the outer shell of electrons filled noble gases are very stable.
Why nitrogen is sparingly soluble in water?
N2 is a very stable, nonreactive , non-polar gas so is almost insoluble in water.
What elements are very stable and have low reactivity?
They are called noble gases or inert elements. Belong to group 8A or 18 They are called noble gases or inert elements. Belong to group 8A or 18 They are called noble gases or inert elements. Belong to group 8A or 18
What is the physical properties of group 18 elements?
Are very stable Are gases Have a full outer shell Don't react Hope this helps
What column in the periodic chart contains the atoms with an ideal electron configuration?
I think you mean the Ideal or Noble gases. Column 18 , or '8' , in 'old money'.
What makes group 18 gases. noble?
noble gases are all very stable because they each have the maximum amount of electrons in their outer shell (8 for all except helium which has 2) they are also nonreactive and cannot form compounds
What is the most reactive group of elements?
It is in Group 17 that you will find the most reactive elements. These elements all lack only one electron from having that "magic" electron configuration of the inert gases. That makes these elements very "hungry" to get that "last electron" so their electron structures become more stable.
What are very stable and have low reactivity?
The noble gases, which is the 18th family in the periodic table, the family on the far right, is very stable and does not react readily, due to the fact that their outer shells are filled with the maximum number of electrons which can be in that shell.
Which group of elements from the periodic table is categorized as chemically insert?
You mean inert. It's group 18, the noble gases. They don't typically react with any other elements because they have a very stable arrangement of 8 electrons in the outer energy level.
