Solution

Explanation:

Inert gas: Class 18 elements are filled with outermost orbital gases, making them extremely stable and resistant to reactions with other elements, This is the reason why these elements are known as inert gases or inert elements.

  1. The word inert means chemically inert, These gases are also known as noble gases, Group 18 is also called zero groups.
  2. The elements of group 18 are also called zero group elements.
  3. They are monoatomic and chemically inert under normal conditions, noble gases are also known as inert gases. Helium, argon, neon, krypton, xenon, and radon are some of the gases that can be found in the atmosphere.

Hence, inert gas and noble gas both are the same.
