Addition or removal or protons are nuclear reactions and dont take place under normal conditions.
If a proton is removed, the previous atom is formed. If a proton is added, then the next atom is formed.

The answer to this question is, "Not much."
Protons remain unchanged as protons for a very long time, perhaps eternally. Experiments have pretty much ruled out a proton half-life shorter than about 10^33 years.

How many protons are in an atom of a pure element?
Each chemical element has a specific number of protons; the number of protons is equal to atomic number of the element.
Do protons of an element vary?
All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. The number of protons determines the element.
What is the name of the element that has 51 protons?
Antimony has 51 protons.
How many protons are found in the element of barium?
Barium has 56 protons.
What three particles determine which element you have?
An atom of an element is comprised of protons, electrons, and usually neutrons. The specific element is determined by the number of protons, and so there is only one particle that determines the element.
What happens when you synthesis an element with 115 protons in its nucleus?
Ununpentium (Uup) has 115 protons.
What happens to an atom if then number of protons change?
The number of protons determines the type of element that the atom is.One proton = hydrogentwo protons = helium.three protons = lithum.six protons = carbon.seven protons = nitrogen.eight protons = oxygen.etc.If you change the number of protons then you change the element
What happens when an atom gains or losses protons?
The element is completely changed
What is totalled to get the mass number of an element?
the number of protons and neutrons added together
Which element would you have if you added 4 protons and 4 neutrons to titanium?
Iron
What effect produced by changing the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom?
What differentiates one element from another (like Hydrogen from Helium) is the number of protons in the nucleus. When protons are added (as happens in nuclear fusion) or subtracted (nuclear fission), the element transmutes into another element. When the number of Protons are changed, both the Electrons and Neutron (numbers) will change too. Protons are paired with electrons. Protons + Electrons = Neutrons, thus reinforcing that both the Electrons and Neutrons will change when the number of Protons has.
Does the atomic number defibe an element?
An element is defined by the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. The atomic number just happens to correspond with the number of protons.
What happens when the number of protons in an atom change?
The type of atom is now different from what it was. (It has a new identity.)
What happens in a nuclear charge when the starting particle changes its number of protons?
It changes the element! More protons more positive charge!
What is the name of protons in the atoms of an element?
Protons are protons, no matter what element they are in.
How many protons are in an atom of a pure element?
Each chemical element has a specific number of protons; the number of protons is equal to atomic number of the element.
What Atomic number of element has 9 protons and 10 neutrons?
The nine protons tells you that the atomic number of the element is going to be nine. Element #9 happens to be Fluorine (F). The most common isotope of fluorine has t10 neutrons. If it doesn't have nine protons, though, it isn't fluorine.
