Is it possible for an atom to have no neutrons?

A hydrogen atom is only a proton and an electron. Beyond that the neutron seems to keep the nucleus together and stable. Maybe a better question is, "What is the difference between a hydrogen atom without an electron and a proton?"


What is the difference between a hydrogen atom and atomic hydrogen?

The difference between a hydrogen atom and atomic hydrogen is that the "hydrogen atom" represents one atom of the chemical element hydrogen. Atomic hydrogen are isolated hydrogen atoms.


Which element has the smallest number of proton in its atom?

The element with one proton per atom is hydrogen.


How much bigger is a hydrogen atom than a proton?

A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 60 picometers while a proton has a diameter of 1.75 femotometers. So a hydrogen atom's diameter is about 35,000 times that of a proton.


What element has 1 proton in each atom?

Hydrogen has one proton in its nucleus.


What proton of an atom never changes in chemistry?

Hydrogen proton


Which element has the smallest number of proton in the atom?

The element with one proton per atom is hydrogen.


If a proton was 1cm across how big would the atom be?

The answer for a hydrogen atom would be about 100 meters across a proton is about 1/10,000 th of the diameter of a hydrogen atom.


What is the proton for xenon?

A proton is a subatomic particle which is the same in whichever element it is found. A proton from a Xenon atom is no different to that from a Hydrogen atom or a Uranium atom.


How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?

A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .


Because a hydrogen atom does not contain a neutron hydrogen ions can be thought of as what?

a Proton. A hydrogen-1 atom (the most abundant isotope of hydrogen) has no neutrons and only 1 proton. So the atom is 1 proton and 1 electron. So the ion, when the electron is removed, the entire ion is just 1 single proton.


Which atom has 1 proton in its nucleus?

Hydrogen
