Yes helium is an atom. It is stable. It is placed in group 18.
Yes, helium is a monoatomic molecule. It is stable itself as it has already achieved maximum possible electrons in its outermost shell. It is the only element in group 18 without 8 electrons in valence shell.
Atoms or ions that have the same number of electrons as helium (2 electrons) are considered isoelectronic with helium. Examples of species that are isoelectronic with helium include H+, Li+, Be2+, and B3+.

The symbol of Helium is He. Helium's atomic number is 2.
The symbol for hydrogen is H, and the symbol for helium is He.
The element with 2 electrons and a charge of -1 is helium. It typically has a charge of 0, but can gain an extra electron to have a -1 charge.
Helium is a neutral atom that has several isotopes and can become an ion.
Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.
If one electron has been removed from Helium's electron shell then it is a He+ ion. If both of its electrons have been removed it becomes a He2+ ion. Either way they are both positive ions.
When a helium atom loses an electron, it forms a helium ion which is positively charged because it has one less electron than protons. This helium ion is written as He+.
Helium has two valence electrons. O6+ ion (a hypothetical ion) will also have 2 valence electrons.
Nuclear emission of a helium ion is called alpha decay.
Helium is chemically inert and does not form any type of ions.
When helium loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged helium ion (He+).
Atoms or ions that have the same number of electrons as helium (2 electrons) are considered isoelectronic with helium. Examples of species that are isoelectronic with helium include H+, Li+, Be2+, and B3+.
Both the hydride ion (H-) and helium atom have two electrons. The hydride ion gains an extra electron to achieve an electron configuration similar to helium (1s²), making them both have two electrons overall. Helium naturally has two electrons in its electron configuration.
Lithium ion (Li+) and beryllium ion (Be2+) have the same electron configuration as helium because they both have filled electron shells.
The unstable ion (NeHe)+ is known.
