Why group 18 elements are called inert ...

Why group 18 elements are called inert gases ? Write the general electronic configuration of group 18 elements.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The element of group -18 have completely filled s and p orbitals, hence they are more stable and have least reactivity. Therefore grouu -18 elements are called inert gases.
`ns^(2)np^(6)` is the genetal electronic configuration of group elements.
