Answer:
B) Their valence shell is full
Explanation:
In order to be classified as a noble gas, an element must have a complete octet/ a full shell of valence electrons, as shown in answer B.
A and C are just incorrect. Since noble gasses are very unstable, D is a true statement, but is isn't the correct answer as this does not explain why they are inert.

Answer:
The average kinetic energy of a particle is proportional to the temperature in Kelvin.
Explanation:
The kinetic molecular theory states that particles of matter are in constant motion and collide frequently with each other as well as with the walls of the container.
The collisions between particles are completely elastic. The kinetic energy of the particles of a body depends on the temperature of the body since temperature is defined as a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of a body.
Therefore, the average kinetic energy of a particle is proportional to the temperature in Kelvin.
Answer:
Enantiomers/ Isomers/ Stereoisomers/ Meso compounds/ Constitutional isomers/ Diastereomers.
Explanation:
Isomers are molecules that have the same chemical formula but have different conformation, or in its connections, or the orientation in space. Isomers have different chemical and physical properties (second blank).
The isomers that only differ by the orientation of their atoms in space are called stereoisomers (third blank).
The stereoisomers that have a chiral carbon and do not mirror images of each are called enantiomers (first blank). They can deviate the polarized light.
When a compound has two or more chiral carbons but they compensate for the deviation of the light, and the compound is optically inactive, it's called a meso compound (fourth blank).
When the isomers differ in the way the atoms are connected it's called a constitutional isomer (fifth blank).
When the molecule has more than one chiral carbon, it will have pairs of enantiomers. The isomers that aren't of the same pair are nonsuperimposable mirror images of each other and are called diastereomers (last blank).
