Dear Friend,
Kindly mark the answer as brainliest if you find it useful.
Here's what you were looking for:
The Noble gases were earlier considered to be inert due to completely filled valence shell and called as "Inert Gases". But when Neil Bartlett prepared Xenon compounds the name changed to "Nobel Gases".
Xenon being a Noble gas is able to form compound because due to it's large size the outer electron are shielded by inner electron, therefore feeling less attraction from nucleus.
A highly electronegative element like Flourine is at least able to share these outer electron, hence forming bonds.
Hope this clears your doubt.✌️
