Helium is already full.

Helium atoms only need 2 electrons to be full, and Helium, as an element, already has 2.

How many valence electrons does helium need to have filled outermost energy level?

helium has 2 valence electrons (in s orbital) and has complete s orbital. So it does not need to gain or lose more electrons to be stable.


What are valence electrons and how do they relate to the noble gases?

Valence electrons are electrons in the outermost shell (or outermost energy level or outermost orbital) in an atom. Noble gases have 8 valence electrons. But helium (a noble gas) has only 2 valence electrons.


Why is a helium atom stable with only two electrons in its outermost energy level?

helium has completely filled valence orbitals and hence is stable
