Detailed explanation-1: -The correct option is (a.) monoatomic. Inner gases or noble gases are also known as rare gases.
Detailed explanation-2: -Due to its high stability, the noble gas atoms do not combine with other atoms. Hence, they do not form bonds with any other atoms and stay free. Therefore, they are always monoatomic.
Detailed explanation-3: -Noble gases are sometimes called rare gases because they are non-reactive gases. They are only rare in abundance relative to other gases found in the atmosphere. They have completely filled the outermost orbit. They are stable and do not form a bond with other elements.
Detailed explanation-4: -Due to this high stability, the inert gas atoms do not combine with other atoms. So, they do not form bonds with any other atoms and hence they are always monoatomic.
