It forms compounds by either donating an electron like an alkali The Periodic Table of the Elements, in Words Noble Gases are inactive, or inert.

8 Each atom has exactly the number of electrons it needs to have metal or accepting an electron like a halogen. Atoms Chemical Bonding a full outer shell, so these atoms almost never bond with other atoms. That is why these are all gases. Nucleus of Atoms form molecules by bonding together. Atoms give, take, or Alkali Metals are very reactive Particles share electrons to achieve full outer electron shells. Periods protons and and readily form compounds but are neutrons +1 Proton Metalloids are Nonmetals, in Halogens are reactive Group 1 not found free in nature.
