All noble gasses other than helium which has 2
The elements that have eight electrons in their outer orbitals are the noble gases, specifically helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. These elements have a full valence shell, giving them stability and making them less likely to form chemical bonds.
Eight, except for helium which has two.
Elements react with other elements based on the number of electrons in their outer shell, also known as valence electrons. Elements are most stable when their outer shell is full, so they will either gain, lose, or share electrons in order to achieve a full outer shell.
The inner orbits (closer to the nucleus) hold fewer electrons than the outer orbits. Each orbit has a maximum capacity of electrons it can hold based on its energy level. The further away an orbit is from the nucleus, the higher its energy level and the more electrons it can hold.
Number of valence electrons, that is, the number of electrons that the outer shell of an atom can hold. Ex. All halogens can have 7electrons in their outer shell. All gases have a full octet, eight electrons.
both have a nucleus of protons and neutrons and outer orbits of electrons
A group of elements that rarely combine with other elements because they already have eight electrons in the outer shells is a Noble Gas
The elements that have eight electrons in their outer orbitals are the noble gases, specifically helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. These elements have a full valence shell, giving them stability and making them less likely to form chemical bonds.
Elements with complete outer shells have a full valence shell of electrons and are stable. This configuration is typically achieved by having eight electrons in the outer shell (known as the octet rule) or two electrons for the first shell. These elements are generally inert or have low reactivity due to their stable electron configuration.
Eight, except for helium which has two.

The outer electron orbits of helium, neon, and argon are all filled with electrons, making them stable and inert. This results in these elements having very low reactivity and being part of the noble gases group on the periodic table. Helium has 2 electrons in its outer orbit, neon has 8, and argon has 18.
Helium is the only noble gas that does not have eight electrons in its outer shell. It has only two electrons in its outer shell.
The elements which falls under the group 16 has 4 electrons in its outer p orbital...
