Argon is a chemical element designated by the symbol Ar. Argon has atomic number 18 and is the third element in group 18 of the periodic table (noble gases). Argon is present in the Earth's atmosphere at slightly less than 1%, making it the most common noble gas on Earth.

Argon gas is one of the inert elements, which basically means it does not react with anything.
It can be a safe carrier gas and is used as such in the scientific comunity.

It's one of the inert gases.
Working down the periodic table, the inert gases are neon, argon, krypton, xenon, radon and so on.
(Just kidding about so on.)
