Where does chlorophyll pick up electrons?
hydrogen ions
Why is the H ion referred to as a proton?
Most hydrogen ions are simply protons. They have no neutron associated with them, and because they are ions, there is no electron. If the hydrogen is known to have no neutron, it is called protium. For practical proposes, there is no distinction between a protium ion and a proton that is not part of a nucleus. Some hydrogen ions are not simply protons, however, and have an associated neutron. In this form, the hydrogen is referred to as deuterium. When hydrogen has two neutrons, it is called tritium, and is radioactive.
What is an example of a hydrogen pun?
A Hydrogen Ion walks up to a policeman and says, "I think I've lost an electron!" The policeman asks, "Are you sure?" The Hydrogen Ion replies, "I'm positive!"
How much of Jupiter is made up of hydrogen?
Jupiter is made up of about 90% hydrogen. If it was about 75% larger, it could be another Sun.
Do hydrogen atom consists of a single neutron?
To answer your question: no, hydrogen atoms (the isotope hydrogen-1, protium) consist of a single proton and a single electron.Although they can consist of one proton, one electron and up to six neutrons.
What is hydrogen called when it gives up electrons?
When a hydrogen atom loses an electron, it is simply a proton.

Does a free neutron decay into a hydrogen atom?
A free neutron actually decays into a proton, and an electron and an antineutrino are ejected in the process. This is beta minus decay, and a free neutron is unstable and will decay by this mechanism. While it is true that a proton and an electron make up a hydrogen-1 atom, the decay of the neutron is slightly different. The reason is that the electron leaves the decay event with a high kinetic energy, and it cannot be "held" by the proton (to create the hydrogen atom). Certainly the proton will "pick up" an electron from somewhere after is slows down a bit following its creation, as it, too, has some kinetic energy. The proton will have to release that kinetic energy through scattering, just like the electron that left the event. Links can be found below to related questions with descriptive answers.
What is another word for pick up?
Lift is another word for pick up. Additional synonyms include raise, gather and take up.

Another way to say you will pick up the mail is to say you will collect the mail.

Which ion end up in the intermembrane space during electron transport?
Hydrogen ions are pumped into the mitochondrion during electron transport. Oxygen is the final acceptor of the electron resulting in the formation of water.
Are all the elements in the periodic table made up of protons neutrons and electrons?
With the exception of hydrogen, all elements have an electron cloud, and a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons. Hydrogen has a single proton nucleus orbited by a single electron.
Which ion ends up in the intermembrane space during electron transport chain?
Hydrogen ions are pumped into the mitochondrion during electron transport. Oxygen is the final acceptor of the electron resulting in the formation of water.
What is electrovalence is something that has givin up its electron and become an Ion?
Electrovalence is a another word for somthing that has given up its electron and become an ion.
What bond forms when an electron is lost?
Generally, the transfer of an electron from one atom to another is known as an Ionic bond. The electron giving up its electron is the 'donor,' while the receiving electron is the 'acceptor.'
