What particle in a nitrogen atom must remain the same in order for it to stay a nitrogen atom?

The atomic number for nitrogen is 7, meaning that it has 7 protons. In order for it to remain as nitrogen, the number of protons in it must always be 7. If, for example, the number of protons were to increase to 8, it would no longer be nitrogen; it would then be oxygen.

How does nitrogen radioactive differ from a stable atom?
Chemically there is no difference between radioactive nitrogen and stable nitrogen. Both will react the exact same way in all chemical reactions. The only difference between the two is the number of neutrons in the nucleus. This means the only difference is mass. If the nitrogen atom has too many neutrons, it will most likely give off a beta particle. The beta particle shoots out from one of its neutrons. That neutron then becomes a proton and the nitrogen becomes oxygen. If the nitrogen atom has too few neutrons, a proton in its nucleus may capture one of its own electrons and turn into a neutron. This would then turn the nitrogen atom into a carbon atom.
