The answer to this question would be: alkaline earth metal

Alkali earth metal is the second column group of the periodic table. In this group, the element has 2 extra electrons in their outer cells. That is why most of this metal has 2+ charge.
Their neighbor is the alkali metal which was the first column of the periodic table. The name is similar so don't confused and mix them each other.

When a lithium atom becomes ionized its new electron configuration is 4 points
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

C. He

Explanation:

When lithium is ionized, its new electronic configuration is the same as that of a helium atom.

 Lithium is made up of 3 electrons with a configuration of:

                     2, 1

it has 1 electron in its outermost shell.

As a metal lithium will prefer to lose an electron due to its electropositivity.

    On losing an electron, it will have 2 electrons remaining

Now, Helium has 2 electrons and this makes it similar to Lithium that has lost one electron.

This makes Lithium isoelectronic with Helium.
