∙ 12y agoNeon and other noble gases have a full outer electron shell, so they have 8 electrons (except helium, which has 2) due to their stable electron configuration. This full outer shell makes them highly stable and unreactive.
When an electron has 8 electrons in its outer shell, it is considered to have a stable configuration known as an octet. This stable configuration is achieved by filling the outermost energy level with 8 electrons, following the octet rule.
Inert gases have 8 valence electrons. This is why they are inert, they have a complete octet formed of electrons and are in their lowest energy configuration.
Inert gases are stable because they have a full outer electron shell that is already filled with electrons. This full electron shell makes them less likely to gain or lose electrons to form chemical bonds with other elements, leading to their inert behavior.
yup. they've got a complete outer shell of electrons so they cannot react.
They have completely filled shells, with eight valence electrons (stable) and hence are inert.

Inert gas atoms have a stable electron configuration with a full outer electron shell, making them highly unreactive. They do not have a tendency to gain or lose electrons to form bonds since their electron configuration is already energetically favorable.
.p,om,
the last group or the 18th group of the table the helium group known as noble gases are known as inert gases
Noble gases are gases and 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 called inert gases.
Noble gases are also known as inert gases because it takes extreme conditions for them to react with any other element, including themselves.
The element name that means lazy is "Inert gas." Inert gases are also known as noble gases due to their stability and lack of reactivity with other elements.

Yes, generally neon
8 valence electrons. except for helium which has 2 valence electrons
