Best Answer

Nothing happens to the main part of the atom (nucleus), as the chemistry is determined by the electrons in the outer orbital shell of each atom.

Take for example sodium hydroxide and hydrogen chloride.

Sodium will lose it's outer electron more readily than hydrogen and chlorine will gain an electron more readily than hydroxide. Therefore sodium and chlorine will react forming sodium chloride and the hydrogen and hydroxide will form water.
