Answer;

A. have a full outer electron shell

Explanation;

  • Noble gases are elements that are found in Group 18 of the periodic table. They include, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, etc.
  • The outer shell of valence electrons is considered to be “full” in noble gases, giving them little tendency to participate in chemical reactions. This means they have an octet configuration.
  • They are all monatomic gases under standard conditions, including those with larger atomic masses than many other elements that are solids under standard conditions.
