Tritium is 3H, so it has one proton, one electron (in the non-ionized state) and two neutrons.
FALSE!!!! A neutral atom must have the same number of protons and electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, to form isotopes. When the number of protons and electrons are different, they are no longer atoms but IONS. If we take hydrogen as an example, it forms three isotopes. #1 ; protium ; 1 proton, 0 neutrons and 1 electrons #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 neutron and 1 electron #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton , 2 neutrons and 1 electron Notice the protons and electrons are the same number, but the number of neutrons varies, between isotopes.
It is hydrogen element. It is tritium isotope of hydrogen.
All hydrogen atoms, regardless of the number of neutrons in its isotope (zero neutrons for protium, one for deuterium, two for tritium), would have only one proton.
No electrons are in the nucleus. the nucleus consists of a proton for normal hydrogen, a proton and neutron for deuterium and a proton and two neutrons for tritium. Deuterium and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen.
It varies depending on the atom but basically there are the same number of neutrons as there are protons. Helium has two protons, two electrons, and two neutrons. The difference between the atomic mass and the atomic number equals the atom's number of neutrons. Consider hydrogen, for example. Standard hydrogen has no neutrons, just one proton. Deuterium is an isotope of hydrogen with one neutron, and tritium (which is unstable) has two neutrons. Carbon 12 has six protons and six neutrons, but carbon 14 (which is unstable) has six protons and eight neutrons. As you move up the periodic table, nuclei tend to have more neutrons than protons. 92 U 238, for example, has 146 neutrons.
1 proton 1 electron 2 neutrons mass = 3 amu
Tritium (Hydrogen-3, H3, T) has 1 Proton, 2 Neutrons, and 1 Electron.
Protium, deuterium, and tritium are all isotopes of hydrogen, meaning they have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons they contain. Protium is the most common and has one proton with no neutrons, deuterium has one proton and one neutron, and tritium has one proton and two neutrons.
The Nucleus of the Hydrogen Atom contains a single proton. All other atoms contain protons and neutrons.The only thing I want to know though is what an atom contains in the nucleus not just a hydrogen atom. Or Is it the same as a Hydrogen one?Im asking this question in the answer box because I dont know how to ask a question.There are two different items that the nucleus of an atom can contain, protons and neutrons.The nucleus of a hydrogen atom contains one proton.The nucleus of a helium atom contains 2 protons and 2 neutrons. The nucleus of many lithium atoms contain 3 protons and 3 neutrons. The name of the atom is determined by the number of protons. You can go to Uranium which has 92 protons and 146 neutrons in the nucleus of the most common variety.The nucleus of an atom contains the neutrons and protons. The nucleus is usually positively charged.
Tritium [note correct spelling] has one proton and two neutrons per atom.
The number of protons defines the element. So if an atom has one proton, you will automatically know it is hydrogen. The number of neutrons or electrons will not change what element it is. Though if the question is asking, hydrogen with two protons is 3H, or tritium.
An element must always have the same number of protons as it's atomic number. The number of electrons may vary, making an atom into an ion, and the number of neutrons can also vary which is why we have different isotopes of the same element.
no the proton and the neutron are in a atom if there are so many protons it will over power the neutron if there are to many neutrons it will over power the proton neutrons and protons must be equal for the atom to be stable.
Tritium, also know as hydrogen 3, has 2 neutrons and one proton

The difference between all three is the number of neutrons. Elements are classified by the number of protons in the nucleus. The number of protons never changes between hydrogen, tritium and deuterium.
It is hydrogen element. It is tritium isotope of hydrogen.
