What is the number of protons in the nucleus or the number the electrons in the energy levels called?
valence electrons
What are the number of protons and electrons found in an element called?
the number of protons in an element is called the atomic number and there is no way to see how many electrons an element has.
How does a natural atom changes when the number of protons neutrons or electrons changes?
If you mean a neutral atom (having no charge), the numbers of protons and neutrons can only change in a nuclear reaction. During a chemical reaction, the number of electrons can increase, resulting in a negatively charged ion, called an anion; or the number of electrons can decrease, resulting in a positively charged ion, called a cation. Whether an atom gains or loses electrons depends on which element it is.
What is the particle called that has an unequal number of protons and electrons called?
That is called an ion.
How does the number of valence electrons change as you go across the 2nd period of the periodic table?
the no. of electrons increses
If you change the number of electrons you get a positive negative or neautraul?
That depends on how you change the number of electrons.
How can you find the correct number of electrons in the atom?
Often there are the same number of electrons as there are protons. Exceptions to this are called ions, which have gained or lost an electron (can't be a proton lost or gained, that would change the element).
What is the number of protons in the nucleus or the number the electrons in the energy levels called?
valence electrons
What is the number of electrons in outer shell called?
The number of electrons in the outer shell are called Valence electrons and are important in determining how the atom reacts chemically with other atoms.
What are the number of protons and electrons found in an element called?
the number of protons in an element is called the atomic number and there is no way to see how many electrons an element has.
How do the number of electrons change across the period of elements?
they get more electrons the farther right the get
Why atomic number not change during a chemical reaction?
chemical reactions are involved by the participation of electrons only.During chemical reaction number of protans remains as it is. No change in number of protans.Number of protans is also called atomic number.So no change in number of protans means no change in atomic number. That's why atomic number is not change during a chemical reaction.
Why atomic number is expressed by protons and not electrons?
electrons change the charge of an atom, not the element itself.
What is the number of electrons in an atom called?
the atomic number (this is also the number of protons)
