Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.

Noble gases are gases that share similar characteristics. When under standard conditions, they are odorless, colorless, monatomic gases, with very low chemical reactivity. There are six noble gases. Which include:

  • helium (He),
  • neon (Ne),
  • argon (Ar)
  • krypton (Kr)
  • xenon (Xe)
  • radon (Rn).

Noble gases are odorless, colorless, and tasteless. They have very low boiling and melting points and are classified as nonreactive due to their full outer electron shells.

Two characteristics of Noble (or Inert) Gases are:

-Highly Unreactive

-Two electrons in their outer shell.

All noble gases have completely filled orbitals / electron shells. They are stable and chemically inert (non-reactive). So generally they will not accept / gain / share electrons.

They have completely filled orbitals and hence are chemically inert (it would not react with most other substances / compounds).
