    Argon atoms would not tend to make bonds with other atoms since it is classified as a noble atom which means it has a complete filled subshells. It does not have any electrons that are available for bonding. Noble gases belong to the Group 8A in the periodic table of elements. All of the elements in this group do have a complete or filled electron orbitals which makes them so stable or the s and p outer electron shells are complete with electrons. All of them follows the octet rule. Thus, they do not need any sharing or transfer of electrons from other compounds for them to be more stable.
