Why are there not isotopes with unusual numbers of protons?
If the number of protons changes so does the element, as the number of protons defines the element.
What are the changes of protons nutrons and electrons?
Protons are positive, electrons are negative, and neutrons have no charge.
When an element transmutates the number of changes?
protons
Which Atoms have the same number of protons as what other?
The neutron. Unless it is an isotope, which has a different number of neutrons.
How are the number of protons an important aspect of the atom?
the number of protons determine what the substance is. if the number of protons in an atom change, the substance made of that atom changes too.
Do the number of protons in a specific atom ever change?
no. because if the number of protons changes, then the element changes
What happens in a nuclear charge when the starting particle changes its number of protons?
It changes the element! More protons more positive charge!
Why doesnt the number of protons change for a single element while the neutrons and electrons can?
The protons don't change because if the number of protons changes, the type of element the atom is changes. The number of protons determine the species of the atom.
What detemines the identit of an element?
The number of protons it has in the nucleus. Number of electrons and neutrons can vary but if the number of protons changes, you have a different element. Number of protons is a constant in an element which never changes.
Why are there not isotopes with unusual numbers of protons?
If the number of protons changes so does the element, as the number of protons defines the element.
Can you form ions of the same element by changing the number of protons?
No. As the number of protons changes, the identity of the element changes and new elements are formed.Ions are formed only when electrons (and not protons) are gained or lost.
What are the changes of protons nutrons and electrons?
Protons are positive, electrons are negative, and neutrons have no charge.
When an element transmutates the number of changes?
protons
Change color as they donate and accept protons?
When the number of protons changes, the elements changes. This could result in change in colour as a different mouth is formed.
Which Atoms have the same number of protons as what other?
The neutron. Unless it is an isotope, which has a different number of neutrons.
The part of an element that never changes is the?
The number of protons.
What causes the process of tansmutation?
The number of protons in the nucleus changes
