Recall the general layout of the periodic table, which is arranged by increasing atomic number from left to right and top to bottom.
Understand that gaseous elements at room temperature are mostly nonmetals and noble gases.
Identify that noble gases are located in Group 18, which is the far right column of the periodic table.
