Does an atom ever give up a proton?

No, an atom can never give up a proton. Only electrons can be shared between atoms.


Have scientists ever found elements with same number of protons?

Well, when two elements have the same number of protons, they are atoms of the same element. Each element has its unique proton number. If an atom has 1 atom, it is called Hydrogen. If it has 2, it is called Helium. If it has 20, it is called Calcium. However, the number of neutrons may differ. For example, in the case of Hydrogen, it may have no neutron, 1 neutron or 2 neutrons, and still be called Hydrogen. However, they are called 'isotopes', meaning members of the same element(same number of proton), but having different neutron numbers.


How do atoms of different element differ from one another?

To understand the answer, one must understand the basic anatomy of an atom. There are three "parts" to every atom, the neutron (neutral charge), the proton (positive charge), and the electron (negative charge). Within the center of atom (the nucleus) are the neutrons and proton, and the electrons are moving around them in an "electron cloud." To clarify, let's think of an atom as the earth with the surrounding atmosphere, the land mass if composed of neutrons and protons, while the atmosphere contains ever moving electrons. Now to answer the question at hand- An element is classified by the number of proton within the nucleus; therefore, the difference between different elements is the number of protons within the nucleus.


Which two particles in an atom are equal in a number?

Under normal conditions, i.e. non-ionic, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.


What was lithiums atomis number?

Li is atom number three, not only 'was' but it still is and ever will be.


Do hydrogen and oxygen have the same number of electrons?

NO! No atom of one element ever has the same atomic number as an atom of a different element, because atomic number is the property that characterizes an element and distinguishes it from all other elements.


Is calcuim a mixture?

Only of isotopes. Calcium is an element. No mixture of chemicals can ever be a single element. The atoms of any element, such as calcium, always have the same number of protons and the same number of electrons. The number of electrons in an atom is the same as the number of protons in that atom. Different Isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus, but this doesn't change any of the chemical properties.


Can the number of neutrons or electrons in an atom of an element change?

If you take a proton away from an element, the whole element will change. For example, you take away one proton from mercury, then you would have gold. People have tried this for many years but so for it's impossible. If you change the number of protons in a atom, it would change the whole substance.


Can nitrogen ever have more than 6 protons?

No because the number of protons can not change. If it does it would then be Oxygen. Think of a proton as an id number or SSN.


What is the biggest atomic number?

The atom discovered with the highest atom number = number of proton = number of electrons Note that some negative ions might be bigger. The biggest element so far discovered is 294Uuo (Ununoctium, element 118), a superheavy transactinide element. Only a small number of atoms of this element have ever been produced. The caesium atom with an empirical radius of 260 pm.


Do the number of protons in a specific atom ever change?

no. because if the number of protons changes, then the element changes


Can the number of neutrons for an element ever differ?

Absolutely. An element is defined by the number of protons in the atomic nucleus. For example, any nucleus with a single proton is by definition hydrogen. There are, however, three different forms of hydrogen; the kind with no neutrons (which is the most usual form), one neutron (known as deuterium) and two neutrons (known as tritium). Every element has isotopes with varying numbers of neutrons.
