Nickel (Ni) is in group 10, not Neon (Ne).
Neon (atomic number 10) is in Group 18 (the Noble gases). This Group was previously called 8A or VIIIA. Please see the site below:

It is definitely not 10. On the old periodic table there were groups 1 -8 with A's and B's, and a central group.
On todays table there are 18 groups.
Neon is in the far right group which is 8 or 18. It is an inert or noble gas, that does not react, because it has 8 electrons in its outer ring.

Its Group 18 or Group VIII. I think the 10 that you got refered to the atomic number of neon.

it is a noble gas, group 18 or 8, it shouldnt be 10, 18 if you consider transition metals such as iron, titanium, zinc etc. 8 if you neglect transition metals.
PS transition metals are in the middle of the periodic table.

NEON is a nobel gas and all the nobel gases are in the 18th group so i m sure it is in 18th group. dont listen to anyone and just say that it is 18th.
