What else can I help you with?
What is only atom without neutrons?
Hydrogen
If there was an atom of this element that has 18 neutrons would it still be the same element?
Yes. Atoms with a different number of neutrons are called isotopes of that atom, but a variation in the number of neutrons does not change what the atom is.
Why can an atom have the same number of neutrons and still be an isotope?
an isotope is defined by an atom with the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons
Do all atoms contain at least one nuetron?
no, atoms don't have to have neutrons, neutrons are supposed to be neutral so it wont change the charge of the atom if you add or subtract neutrons from an atom. what will change is the mass number of the atom.
Can an atom exist without neutrons?
Yes. Most hydrogen atoms do not contain neutrons. All other atoms do.
What is found with protons in the nucleus of an atom?
11
Where are nutrons found in an atom?
Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons. They have no electrical charge and help stabilize the nucleus by adding mass without affecting the atom's overall charge.
What are the neutrons and protons found in?
The neutrons and protons are found in the nucleus of the atom. Along with electrons, they are the subatomic molecules that make up the atom. FYI an atom is the smallest piece of matter that still maintains its identity and properties
What do neutrons add to an atom?
Neutrons add mass and stability to an atom by increasing the atomic weight without changing the chemical properties. They also help to hold the nucleus together by balancing the repulsive forces between protons.
What increases on a atom when neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom when its neutral?
When neutrons do not add to the charge of an atom, the number of protons remains the same, so the atomic number stays constant. However, the mass number of the atom increases because neutrons contribute to the mass of an atom without affecting its charge.
Which particles in an atom can increase or decrease in number without changing the identity of the element?
Neutrons
Which element does not have any neutron in this atom?
Hydrogen is the only element without any neutrons.
