Chemical inertness means no or very less ability to react with other elements or compounds , it depends mainly on the valency of elements. elements usually react with other substances because they have to satisfy their valency by filling their octets , but those elements which already have a completely filled octet shows no or very less reactivity towards other elements. and rarely react with other elements . this is known as chemical inertness.
