What are the smallest particle of an element?
The smallest particle of an element would be an atom. Any smaller and it would not be an element, but something more basic. Atoms are made of Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. Protons and Neutrons are made of Quarks, Leptons, and Bosons.
What are the element that has ten protons in its nucleus?
It would be the 10th element in the periodic table, Neon.
What happens when the number of protons in an atom change?
The type of atom is now different from what it was. (It has a new identity.)
What element would you get if you add 3 protons to lithium?
carbon
Does a isotope of a element have more protons?
All isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, otherwise they would not be the same element. What varies is the number of neutrons, they can be more or less than in the stable isotope(s) of the element.
What type of chemical bond can form between an element with 11 protons and an element with 17 protons?
This would be an ionic bond. The element with 11 protons would be sodium. The element with 17 protons would be chlorine. Sodium Chloride which is ionic would be the result.
A atom has a what number of protons?
It depends on what atom. The number of protons in an atom determines which element it is and the properties it has. Hydrogen atoms will always have one, and only one, atom, while Neodymium atoms will have exactly 60 atoms. If the number of protons was different, say 61, the atom would be a different element, specifically Promethium. The number of protons for an element is also its atomic number.
What is the element that has 8 electrons and 7 protons?
Any element with 7 protons would be Nitrogen
Which element would have properties most similar to the new element?
The element that would have properties most similar to the new element would be an element that lies in the same group as the new element. Specifically, the element with the most similar properties will lie directly above or below that element in the group.
What are the smallest particle of an element?
The smallest particle of an element would be an atom. Any smaller and it would not be an element, but something more basic. Atoms are made of Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons. Protons and Neutrons are made of Quarks, Leptons, and Bosons.
What element would you get if three protons?
Lithium
Why would sodium never have 12 protons?
Sodium has 11 protons. The element with 12 protons is magnesium
Does any other element have the same number of protons as sulfur?
No, there can be no other element that has the same number of protons as sulfur, and that is because elements are defined by the number of protons that they have. Therefore no two elements can have the same number of protons; if they did, they would be the same element.
What is the number of protons in the nucleus?
The number of protons is the same as the atomic number of the element. for example if your element is magnesium with the atomic number 12 there would be 12 protons in the nucleus.
Can atoms of two different elements have the same number of neutrons?
Number of protons in in an element denote the type of element. So you identify element on the number of protons in it. Protons being positively charged can not sit together in a nucleus. They will repel each other. So you do not have an element in which only 2 or more protons and no neutrons are there.It means neutrons act as binding material in an element. So usually equal or more neutrons are there in an element. If same number of neutrons are there in nucleus but different number of protons, then it is no more a same but different element. An element in which different number of neutrons are there are called as Isotope. All element have got one or more Isotopes. So there 'physical' properties would differ but not 'chemical' property.
What piece of information would best help to identify the element?
The number of protons the element has
What are the element that has ten protons in its nucleus?
It would be the 10th element in the periodic table, Neon.
