Helium is an element- the second one in the Periodic Table.
Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.
Helium atom has 2 electrons.
1 mole of the element has 6.023 x 1023 atoms 1 mole = 4 g of helium = 7 g of lithium = 9 g of beryllium = 11 g of boron = 12 g of carbon = 14 g of nitrogen = 16 g of oxygen
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
A molecule of helium is composed of two helium atoms.
Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.
None, for it to be an atom it has the have the same number of electrons and protons. Something with 1 electron and 2 protons would theoretically be a helium ion but helium does not form ions.
The nucleus of hydrogen has 1 proton, whereas that of helium has 2 protons.
The nucleus of hydrogen has 1 proton, whereas that of helium has 2 protons.
Elements are not species. Helium is an element. Helium can be a single atom.
Helium atom has 2 electrons.
1 mole of the element has 6.023 x 1023 atoms 1 mole = 4 g of helium = 7 g of lithium = 9 g of beryllium = 11 g of boron = 12 g of carbon = 14 g of nitrogen = 16 g of oxygen
The electron configuration of helium is 1s2; two electrons on the first (and the single) electron shell.
A molecule of helium is composed of two helium atoms.
The sun uses nuclear fusion to produce light and energy. the process is relatively complicated but simplified it looks something like this. step 1: hydrogen atom + hydrogen atom = deutrerium atom (an isotope of hydrogen (one extra neutron)) + positron + neutrino step 2: Deutrerium atom + hydrogen atom = helium 3 (an isotope of Helium (missing one neutron)) + energy step 3: helium 3 atom + helium 3 atom = helium atom + hydrogen atom + hydrogen atom + energy.
This isotope of helium is helium-3; the atomic number of helium is 2.
Yes, helium atom.
