how isotopes can have different masses and still be the same element?
For the same element the number of protons and electrons remains unaltered. Howerm for that same element the number of neutrons can vary., leading to different atomic masses. Taking hydrogen as an example. It has three isotopes. #1 ; protium ; 1 proton , 0 neutrons (Atomic Mass ; 1 + 0 = 1 ) #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 neutron ( Atomic mass ; 1 + 1 = 2) #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton, 2 neutrons ( Atomic Mass ; 1 + 2 = 3) Notice for each isotope of hydrogen there is only ONE proton. However, for each different isotope of hydrogen there is a different number of neutrons. The Atomic Mass is the sum of the protons and neutrons). #4 ; Helium(He) ; 2 protons, 2 neutrons ( atomic mass 2 + 2 = 4 ). For comparison helium has 2(TWO) protons and 2 neutrons, but it is an entirely different element, because it has a different number of protons.
What is the charge on an element with 0 neutrons and 1 proton and atomic number 1?
This is Hydrogen. Assuming it is not ionized it will have no charge.
What do protium deuterium and tritium have in common?
Protium, deuterium, and tritium are all isotopes of hydrogen, meaning they have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons they contain. Protium is the most common and has one proton with no neutrons, deuterium has one proton and one neutron, and tritium has one proton and two neutrons.
Mass number - atomic number equals?
Mass number minus the atomic number equals the number of neutrons. Mass number is the number of particles in an atom that have significant mass. Electrons are assigned a value of 0 since the mass is so much smaller than protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are similar in mass and are assigned mass number of 1. The formula for calculating atomic mass atomic mass = # protons + # neutrons.
Is there an element that has the same atomic number and atomic mass?
No, there is no naturally occurring element with the same atomic number and atomic mass. The atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of the masses of its isotopes, which have different numbers of neutrons. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in its nucleus, which determines its identity. Therefore, the atomic number and atomic mass are different for each element.
What is hydrogen's number of neutrons equals mass number - atomic number equals?
The number of neutrons in an atom can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) from the mass number. For hydrogen, the atomic number is 1 and the mass number is also 1. Therefore, the number of neutrons in hydrogen is 1 (mass number - atomic number = 1 - 1 = 0 neutrons).

What element has one proton and is found in water?
hydrogen atomic mass 1 atomic number 1 1 proton 1 electron 0 neutrons
What is the charge on an element with 0 neutrons and 1 proton and atomic number 1?
This is Hydrogen. Assuming it is not ionized it will have no charge.
How many protons and newtrons does a hydrogen atom contain?
There is one proton, one electron in hydrogen. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope of hydrogen. Hydrogen has three isotopes: protium, deuterium and tritium with 0, 1 and 2 neutrons respectively.
What do protium deuterium and tritium have in common?
Protium, deuterium, and tritium are all isotopes of hydrogen, meaning they have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons they contain. Protium is the most common and has one proton with no neutrons, deuterium has one proton and one neutron, and tritium has one proton and two neutrons.
Protons have about the same mass as neutrons but are opposite in sign?
Both protons and neutrons are part of the nucleus of an atom, that is more to do with the mass side of things, as for them having an oppoite sign, they don't Neutron is neutrol or 0 where as proton is + or 1, the opposite of a proton is a electron, or in some advanced cases the anti proton , not to be confused with the elctron.

The formula for calculating atomic mass atomic mass = # protons + # neutrons.
How can the number of protons electrons and neutrons can be calculated when given atomic number and atomic mass?
the number of protons and electrons is equal. if there are 3 protons there are 3 electrons and the atomic mass is protons plus neutrons so to find them atomic mass - atomic number= number of neutrons
What causes atoms of the same elements to have different atomic masses?
Elements have a certain number of protons(+), neutrons(0) and electrons(-). The atomic number shows the number of protons and electrons in the element (has to have the same number of each to stay stable). The atomic mass shows the number of neutrons. For example, Hydrogen has an atomic mass of ~1.01 (and an atomic number of 1). That means that it has 1 electron and 1 proton but no neutron (1 proton+0 neutrons=1). Helium has an atomic mass of ~4.00 (and an atomic number of 2). That means that it has 2 electrons, 2 protons and 2 neutrons (2 protons+2 neutrons=4). Hope you can understand. :S
How many Protons Neutrons Electrons hydrogen have?
A hydrogen atom has 1 proton and 1 electron regardless of the isotope.Standard hydrogen(protium) has zero neutrons.The deuterium isotope has 1 neutron and the tritium (very radioactive) has 2 neutrons.
Protons neutrons and electrons of hydrogen?
1 proton, 0 neutrons, 1 electron
