The electron configuration of helium is 1 s 2 , indicating that it has 2 electrons occupying the s subshell of its first energy level. Both electrons fill the orbital with opposite spins, making helium a stable noble gas. This configuration reflects helium's atomic structure and position in the periodic table.
