Noble gasses (group 8) are the least reactive elements in the periodic table because they have a full valence shell.

The right-most column, Group 8*, or the noble gases, is the least reactive elements in the Periodic Table.

* In newer version of periodic table by IUPAC, its the group 18; whereas it was the 8th A group that noble gases occupied in older version.

What is the least reactive element in the group 2 of the periodic table of elements?

The Zinc Family also known as group IIB is the second least reactive I believe. The least reactive family is the one with a full p sublevel, the noble gases, the next least reactive would be the family with a full d sublevel. Since group IIB has a full d sublevel, it must be the next least reactive family.

Which group on the periodic table would not be reactive chemically?

The noble gases, column 18 or VIII of a periodic table, are the least reactive. However, in the last few decades, compounds of at least the heavier members of this group have in fact been made. Therefore, there is no longer any entire group on the periodic table that is totally unreactive chemically.
