A proton is positively charged; a neutron has no charge and an electron is negatively charged, that is why it is attracted to the atom, which consists of protons.
A hydrogen atom is only a proton and an electron. Beyond that the neutron seems to keep the nucleus together and stable. Maybe a better question is, "What is the difference between a hydrogen atom without an electron and a proton?"
There are 1 proton, 0 neutron and 1 electron in H1.
Hydrogen - 1 proton, 1 electron Deuterium - 1 proton, 1 neutron 1 electron Tritium - 1 proton, 2 neutrons, 1 electron
1 proton, 0 neutrons, 1 electron
1 Proton and 1 electron but no neutrons.
Proton: Positive Neutron: No charge Electron: Negative
The main differences are proton and neutron are in the nucleus, electrons are outside of the nucleus. The weight of an electron is between a hundred and a thousand times less of that of a proton and neutron and the charge on a proton is positive, neutron is neutral and electron is negative
Protons in one atom are held close to neutrons in the same atom by the strong nuclear force so the proton can't revolve around the neutron In a hydrogen atom 1 electron revolves around 1 proton. The proton also revolves around the electron but due to the huge difference between their masses, the center of rotation of the two masses is inside the proton, close to it's center
Hydrogen has no neutrons. It has 1 proton in the nucleus and 1 orbital electron.
The simplest atom that contains one proton, one electron, and no neutrons is the hydrogen atom.
Slightly more than that of a proton plus an electron.
Fluorine (F).
