Answer 1

Answer:

Atom of a noble gas

Explanation:

The atoms of only a few elements called noble gases (Such as helium, neon, argon and kryton, etc.) are chemically unreactive and exist in the free state or independently.

Answer 2

Noble gas (group 8 elements). They do not form compounds (although there are a few exceptions) and exist independently. Examples: helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon.

The reason is that the octet of group 8 elements is filled and thus they do not need to form compounds or molecules to become stable.
