An atom likes to become stable. The number of protons and electrons in the atom are the same. Protons are positively charged, neutrons have no charge (ie they are neutral) and electrons are negatively charged.
If one electrons is lost the whole atom would become positive.
If the number of protons in an element changes, then it is no longer that element. Also, all an element is is a combination of protons, neutrons, and electrons. So, to answer your question, there would just be a clump of neutrons. They might float away, because there is nothing keeping them together. However, they will not float away very fast, because they are not repelled either.
If the atom is not hydrogen, the atom becomes an atom of the element with an atomic number one less than the original atom. If the atom is hydrogen, the entire atom disintegrates.
It becomes an atom of a different element, the one with its new atomic number, fewer by one than before the loss.
It becomes a different element, and probably radioactive due to excess neutrons.
Losing a proton is a nuclear reaction. It may cause instability in the atom and may occur further nuclear reactions to decompose into smaller atoms and atomic particles.
It will no longer be that atom.

the number of protons in an atom is what determines which element the atom is. So if an atom "lost" a proton, it would become another element entirely.
Hydrogen only has one proton ,so it can pass that one proton onto another element, making it part of a molecule. It can become an ion if it loses that proton, or gains that proton.
If an atom looses an electron, neither the atomic mass nor atomic weight change appreciatively. If it looses a proton or neutron, both atomic mass and atomic weight decrease by one and it becomes an atom of a different element (on loss of a proton), or a different isotope of the same element (upon loss of a neutron).
Such a chemical species is called a conjugate base.

Uranium minus a proton (hydrogen atom) is protactinium.? That is, if you could get it to do that - this is an unusual reaction.
an ion is when an element loses or gains one or more electrons. an isotope is when a element loses or gains one or more neutrons. when one or more proton(s) is/are gained or lost, it becomes a different element.
Hydrogen only has one proton ,so it can pass that one proton onto another element, making it part of a molecule. It can become an ion if it loses that proton, or gains that proton.
In alpha decay, the nucleus loses two protons and two neutrons. The resulting element will therefore have an element number that is two less.In beta minus decay, a neutron gets converted to a proton. The resulting element will have one more proton - the element number will be one more. In beta plus decay, a proton gets converted to a neutron. The resulting element will have one less proton - the element number will be one less.
It loses 2 proton and 2 nutron

Hydrogen is composed of 1 proton and 1 electron. If it loses its electron, it still has 1 proton left, which is a positive charge.
When an atom loses a proton it is normally because it has collided with a neutron or another atom. It would change the element from Carbon to Boron. Hope this helps, i may not be entirely accurate ive only just begun studying this at A level.
