Answer: neon atoms

Explanation:

Neon is an element of the group 18 of the periodic table, which is also called the group of the 'noble gases'. The main property of these noble gases is that they have their last energy shell completely filled with electrons, so they do not give away/receive electrons to form atomic bonds with other elements. For this reason, noble gases (such as neon) do not react with other elements.
