What is the core charge of helium and why?

Formula for effective nuclear charge is as follows. So, for He atom value of S = 0.30 because the electrons are present in 1s orbital. Therefore, calculate the effective nuclear charge for helium as follows. Thus, we can conclude that the effective nuclear charge for helium is 1.7

Explanation:

The effective nuclear charge experienced by a 1s electron in helium is +1.70.

first one is the correct answer
