Inactive gases are gases that are chemically unreactive under normal conditions. They often include noble gases such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon. These gases have a stable electron configuration and are generally non-reactive with other elements.
Some examples of inactive gases include nitrogen (N2), argon (Ar), helium (He), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and neon (Ne). These gases are considered inactive because they are stable and do not readily react with other elements under normal conditions.
Noble gases are very unreactive because the valence electron shell is filled.
Noble gases, such as helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon, are considered inactive because they have a full outer electron shell, making them unlikely to react with other elements. Nitrogen and oxygen are also relatively inert gases at room temperature and pressure.
Noble gases have completely filled electronic configuration and hence they are chemically inactive / inert / do not form bond with other elements.
Helium, neon, argon are used because they are chemically inactive.
