The noble gases are the chemicalelements in group 18 of the periodic table. They are the most stable due to having the maximum number of valence electrons their outer shell canhold. Therefore, they rarely react with other elements since they are already stable.

Elements react with each other to achieve a stable octet or stable outermost shell. It means they want to fill the maximum number of electrons according to their capacities.
Noble gases already have a stable octet, they have the maximum number of electrons in their outermost shell, they can take. For example, Helium is a noble gas it's outermost shell is K which can carry only 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons. Same with Neon it's outermost shell is L which have 8 electrons which is it's maximum capacity.
