  • Atomic number of neon is 10, so its electronic configuration is (2, 8). There are 8 electrons in its 2nd shell, fulfilling its capacity. 
  • Thus, neon has a complete octet. 
  • It has a stable orbit therefore, it does not indulge in chemical reactions. Hence, neon is a chemically inert element.
