Most of the information in the question is not needed in order to answer it; this is the sort of thing that some teachers do to trap their students. tut tut!

You need to know the Atomic Mass of copper, which is ~ 63.55. This tells you that the gram-atomic-mass (GAM) of copper is 63.55 grams. You have 1000gm of copper (and that is the only info you need from the question.)

1000/63.55 ~=15.7. So, you now know that you have 15.7 GAMs of copper.

The last thing you need is something called Avogadro's number. Named after the chemist who first measured it, this is the number of atoms in one GAM. The number is ~6 x 1023 . Therefore 15.7 x 6 x 1023 ~= 9.4 x 1024 atoms.

What is the correct electron configuration for Cu?

The electron configuration of copper is: [Ar]4s13d10. It isn't 4s23d9 because Cu is able to obtain a more stable electron configuration when it takes an electron from the 4s and adds it to 3d. A half filled 4s and a completely filled 3d is more stable.

Why iron is not a good conductor of heat if it compair to copper?

Copper has relatively easily available electron as compare to the iron because copper has bigger atomic size than iron which means the shielding effect in copper is more than iron so the electron of copper can conduct heat more easily and efficiently as compare to the electron of the iron which make iron not a good conductor of heat if it is compair to copper.
