Quick Answer.  Noble gases are unreactive because their outer electron shells are full and therefore in their most stable state. Normally, elements react with one another because they have incomplete electron shells. They lose, gain or share electrons in order to gain a more stable electron configuration.
Noble Gases. The noble gases consist of group 18 (sometimes reffered to as group O) of the periodic table of elements. The noble gases have very low boiling and melting points and are all gases at room temperature. They are also very nonreactive as they already have a full valence shell with 8 electrons. Therefore, the noble gases have little tendency to lose or gain electrons.
