Best Answer

Nitrogen atoms have 7 protons in their nuclei. You can know this because the atomic number of nitrogen is 7, and the atomic number is the number of protons. So the element that has one less proton than nitrogen in the nuclei of its atoms is carbon, which is atomic number 6, so it has 6 protons in the nuclei of its atoms.

Is the proton smaller than the electron?

Actually every proton has different size in different nucleus. But in general, Proton, 1x10-15 m or "a diameter of approximately one-millionth of a nanometer". The electron, the diameter is less than 1x10-18 m. Likewise, The diameter of an electron is less than 1/1000 the diameter of a proton.

No , because the neutrons have the same particles as the nucleus.

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+ .

Which is bigger a helium nucleus or helium proton?

The helium nucleus is larger than the proton. The He nucleus consists of two protons, and one (rarely) or two (most commonly) neutrons. (These are He-3 and He-4, respectively.) That would make the helium nucleus a multiple of three or four times the mass of that of a single proton.


What would have been the charge of the new nucleus formed if the beta particle had been a positron?

When a positron is emitted a proton is converted into a neutron. Therefore the new nucleus will have a positive charge that is one less than its previous charge.


How break nucleus from proton?

Well, the question as asked does not actually make physical sense. No disrespect intended. You see, the 'proton' is itself regarded as the nucleus in the pure hydrogen atom (one + charge particle, the 'proton', and one - charge particle, the electron). As such, the 'proton' IS the nucleus.In heavier elements the 'proton' is part of the nucleus when combined with a neutron.Good luck in your search for knowledge. But better hard work than luck.


Why does hydrogen need at least one proton in it's nucleus?

It is very simple. The hydrogen atom is composed of a nucleus with only one proton and an electron around the nucleus.
