Give reason: Elements of group 18 or group zero are called inert or noble gases.

1 Answer

Answer :

Elements of group 18 do not form chemical bond on their own with other elements as they

have completed shells of electrons. They have no tendency to gain or lose electrons.

Hence they are most un-reactive
