in the first shell there are 2 electrons
there is only one shell because the rule is first shell 2 second shell 8 third shell 8 forth shell whats left unless it is a transition metal then their is always two on the out side unless in is copper or chromium then there is just one and the third shell has the leftovers up to 18 .
sorry i got a little cared away
Do you mean electron shells? If so, then one.
Helium has only one electron shell with two electrons.
Electron shells?
One.
One.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
I assume you mean energy levels/shells. It has 1.
Since Helium is a noble gas meaning it is stable, and the fact that it has one shell, it has 2 shells in its inner-most shell.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.
Helium has only 1 shell with two electrons.
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
All elements in the first period have 1 shell. That's hydrogen and helium.

Since Helium is a noble gas meaning it is stable, and the fact that it has one shell, it has 2 shells in its inner-most shell.
The first and only filled shell has two electons. The nucleaus has two protons. He-4 also has two neutrons.
A "red giant" star can fuse both hydrogen (in the star's outer shells) and helium (in the core).
The number of electrons in a neutral atom will equal the number of protons; the electrons are arranged in concentric shells (at least for atoms heavier than helium; hydrogen and helium both have only one shell, not concentric shells).
Helium has 2 electrons and Radon has 86 electrons but both have 8 valence electrons (8 electrons in their outermost shells)
Helium has 2 valence electrons and has completely filled orbitals / shells and helium is stable.
The noble gases, which are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon, have their outermost electron shells full.
