Explanation

Helium is a rare gas (noble gas) - Group 18 elements known for being chemically inert due to their complete valence electron shells. Lithium is an alkali metal (Group 1), lanthanum is a lanthanide, and zirconium is a transition metal. Rare gases are called 'rare' because they exist in trace amounts in Earth's atmosphere.
