Does a hydrogen atom have a neutron in its nucleus?

No, a hydrogen atom does not have a neutron in its nucleus. A hydrogen atom consists of only one proton in its nucleus.


How many neutrons are in an atom of deuterium?

Deuteriums emision spectrum either is like hydrogen http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch6/bohr.html or like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Deuterium_lamp_1.png


Which atom do not contain neutron?

Hydrogen-1, (there is a trace of hydrogen-2 (deuterium) found in nature, and hydrogen-3 is an artificial isotope)


What type of atom has one neutron and one proton?

I'm pretty sure its a hydrogen atom


Can a hydrogen atom have more than one neutron?

Yes, a hydrogen atom can have one or more neutrons, but when it has more than one neutron, it is considered an isotope of hydrogen called deuterium or tritium. Deuterium has one neutron, tritium has two neutrons, and they are both heavier than the typical hydrogen atom.


How many neutrons are in hydrogon?

One neutron per atom of hydrogen.


You have 1 electron 1 proton and 1 neutron. What are you?

You are an atom of heavy hydrogen, or deuterium. Most hydrogen has one proton and one electron, which form a neutral atom. But once in a while, a neutron will stick to the proton, and then the atom, which is still hydrogen (it has just the one proton) will be about twice as massive as "regular" or "common" hydrogen. It is another isotope of hydrogen called heavy hydrogen or deuterium.


Number of protons in a hydrogen?

The "NUMBER" (#) of Protons in an Atom of Hydrogen is one (1). The number of protons is what makes a specific element that element. Hydrogen always has one proton no matter what. If someone says that a hydrogen atom has two protons(they are incorrect), it is no longer hydrogen; it is the element Helium.


Which subatomic particle is not present in an ordinary hydrogen atom?

The isotope hydrogen-1 don't contain neutrons.


What type of particle has an atomic number of 1 and a mass number of 1?

Of the common sub-atomic particles, both the proton and the neutron have mass numbers of 1.


What is the atom with the smallest diameter?

A hydrogen atom has the smallest diameter because there is only one proton and neutron.


What would happen if a hydrogen atom has one neutron?

It would be Deuterium, also called Heavy Hydrogen.
