The reaction equation is:
<span>2CuO(s) + C(s) </span>→ <span>2Cu(s) + CO</span>₂<span>(g)
First, we determine the number of grams present in one ton of copper oxide. This is:
1 ton = 9.09 x 10</span>⁵ g
We convert this into moles by dividing by the molecular mass of copper oxide, which is:
9.09 x 10⁵ / 79.5 = 11,434 moles
Each mole of carbon reduces two moles of copper oxide, so the moles of carbon required are:
11,434 / 2 = 5,717 moles of Carbon required
The mass of carbon is then:
5,717 x 12 = 68,604 grams
The mass of coke is:
68,604 / 0.95 = 72,214 g
The mass of coke required is 7.22 x 10⁴ grams

Explanation:
If we look at the electron configuration closely, we will discover that the element must have had a ground state electron configuration of 2,4.
This is because, the innermost shell usually holds two electrons while the outer shells hold eight electrons each. The four electrons must be accommodated in the second shell in the ground state configuration of the compound.
However, when the atom is excited, one electron from this shell may move to the third shell to give the excited state configuration 2-3-1 as shown in the question.
The atomic mass or relative isotopic mass refers to the mass of a single particle, and therefore is tied to a certain specific isotope of an element. The dimensionless standard atomic weight instead refers to the AVERAGE of atomic mass values of a typical naturally-occurring mixture of isotopes for a sample of an element.
You can count it by yourself using formula
m = ({first isotopic distribution%}× {first atomic.mass})+ ({second isotopic distribution%}× {second atomic.mass}) / {100}
I believe it is C, as helium is one of the lightest noble gases making the particles move faster.
