Here is a great video to reference to! Check it out:

 

 

 

General Information:

 

-All are located in the 18th period (or 8A).

-All are octets: They have 8 valence electrons except Helium(Has two valence electrons).

-All are in block "P".

-Elements in the 18th period are: Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and Radon.

-Outer Shell Configuration: ns^2  np^6
