The correct Answer is:
To determine which atom or ion has a spectrum similar to that of helium, we need to consider the number of electrons in each species. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the number of electrons in helium (He)**: - Helium has 2 electrons. 2. **Look for other atoms or ions with the same number of electrons**: - We need to find another species that also has 2 electrons. 3. **Consider the lithium ion (Li⁺)**: - Lithium (Li) has 3 electrons. When it loses one electron to become Li⁺, it has 2 electrons remaining. - Therefore, Li⁺ has the same number of electrons as He. 4. **Compare the electronic configurations**: - The electronic configuration of helium (He) is 1s². - The electronic configuration of lithium ion (Li⁺) is also 1s², as it has lost one electron from its original configuration of 1s² 2s¹. 5. **Conclusion**: - Since both helium and lithium ion have the same number of electrons and the same electronic configuration, their spectra are expected to be similar. - Thus, the spectrum of helium is expected to be similar to that of lithium ion (Li⁺). ### Final Answer: The spectrum of helium (He) is expected to be similar to that of lithium ion (Li⁺).
