Noble gases have filled shells, which is the most stable configuration for an atom. Removing an electron from a noble gas would increase the energy more than if you removed an electron from, for example, nitrogen.

Because of the amount of energy that is required to remove an electron from a noble gas atom. (which is usually the only way to get them to react).

noble gases are gases which do not (or rarely, with difficulty) react with other elements...
It is so because of the fact that they have stable outer shell.
i.e. complete with 8 electrons.
So, every element react to achieve this stable state which they already have..
:-)
So, they do not need and wont give their electron easily...
As it would make them unstable...
And, ionisation energy is the energy which is needed to remove 1 electron from outer shell...
That's why, They have
very high ionisation energy...

they have 8 valence electrons? and because ionization levels increase on the periodic table starting from left to right.
