helium has two electrons and has a charge of -2 for these electrons.
However there are 2 protons in the nucleus and helium element as a whole is neutral.

What element has 2 electrons (neutral atom )?
Helium has 2 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons.
If helium has 2 protons 2 electrons it is considered what?
If it has 2 protons 2 electrons and 2 neutrons then it's your normal neutral Helium atom.
Is helium atom electrically neutral?
Helium is a neutral atom that has several isotopes and can become an ion.
How many electrons does an atom of helium have atomic?
Helium atom has 2 electrons.
Why does helium atom have no electrical charge?
Helium has 2 protons and 2 electrons. So the charge is neutralized. Besides, all atoms have neutral charge as the number of protons and electrons will be the same
How may electrons does helium have?
A neutral atom of helium has 2 electrons.
How many electrons would a neutral atom of helium have?
2

Is helium atom electrically neutral?
Helium is a neutral atom that has several isotopes and can become an ion.
Why is any atom neutral?
The atom has the same number of electrons as protons. electrons are negatively charged, and protons are positively charged. So for example in a Helium atom, it has 2 protons and 2 electrons, so the sub-particles cancel out, making the atom neutral.
How many electrons does an atom of helium have atomic?
Helium atom has 2 electrons.
What is the number of electrons in a neutral atom of an element always equal 2?
2. Cause the only element that can "always equal 2" is Helium. And helium has 2 electrons. Number of protons=number of electrons.
What will an electrically neutral atom have equal numbers of?
An electrically neutral atom has the same number of electrons as protons. Since protons have a positive change and electrons have a negative charge, when there is the same number of them, the charges cancel each other out. Example: Helium is neutral when it has 2 electrons, since it also has 2 protons.
What will an alpha particle change into when it absorbs two electrons?
When it captures (not absorbs) electrons and becomes neutral the alpha particle becomes a helium atom.
Why does helium atom have no electrical charge?
Helium has 2 protons and 2 electrons. So the charge is neutralized. Besides, all atoms have neutral charge as the number of protons and electrons will be the same
When you have a neutral atom what are the electrons equal to?
The electrons are equal to the amount of protons in that neutral atom.
