Highly reactive metals that easily combine with other elements are called alkali metals, like sodium and potassium. They react vigorously with water and oxygen.
Noble gases, such as helium and neon, typically do not combine chemically with other elements due to their stable electron configuration. This stability makes them unlikely to form compounds with other elements.
When two or more elements combine chemically, it is called a chemical compound. In a chemical compound, the elements are bonded together in specific ratios to form a new substance with unique properties.
Group 18, also called the noble gases, contains the elements that are nonreactive.
All elements are composed of extremely small particles called atoms. Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
this process is called fusion
Noble gases are not reactive. They are inert. That's why they are called noble gases. Just as the human nobility does not lower itself to associate with the lower classes, so do noble gases not combine with lesser elements. They remain aloof.
inertness, non-reactivity
Noble gases, such as helium and neon, typically do not combine chemically with other elements due to their stable electron configuration. This stability makes them unlikely to form compounds with other elements.
The Inert Gases of Group 0 rarely combine with other elements as they are (exc. Radon) extremely unreactive. The Inert Gases are:HeliumNeonArgonKryptonXenon(Radon)
Halogens these are the salt forming elements which are highly reactive

Elements in the second group have 2 outer shell electrons and also very reactive. What are they called?
They are in the s block. Metals of the 1st group.
They are in the s block. Metals of the 1st group.
Many chemical elements combine with oxygen; the reaction with oxygen is called oxydation.
Oh, dude, those are the alkali metals. They're like the divas of the periodic table with their one outer shell electron, always causing drama and reacting with everything in sight. You definitely don't want to mess with those guys unless you're ready for some serious fireworks!
