Are one proton and one electron added to each element as you go across the periodic table?

Yes. The overall atomic weight of each atom on the periodic table is the sum of protons (Positively charged particles in the nucleus) and neutrons (no charge).
The properties of each element is a byproduct of the number of protons.
While electrons (the negative particles that "orbit" the nucleus) have mass, it is negligible when compared to the other two components.

∙ 12y agobasically yes. But don't forget the addition of a neutron or two as you go across the table.

∙ 13y agoYes, and the way you determine this is by the element's atomic number.

What is the smallest element that maintains the properties of an element?
The smallest element on the Periodic Table is Hydrogen. It has only 1 electron in 1 electron shell and 1 proton in it's nucleus.
What is the simplest element on a periodic table?
Hydrogen is because it has only one proton and one electron.
This element has the smallest atoms of all the elements?
Hydrogen has the smallest atoms of any element, as it has only 1 electron in 1 electron shell and 1 proton. This is why it's first on the Periodic Table.
Number of proton in an atom?
that would depend on what element your talking about. ie Hydrogen is #1 on the periodic chart, and it has 1 electron and 1 proton. Aluminum is 17? on the periodic chart, and it has 17 electrons and protons. just look at the atomic number, and that's how many it has
What variable organizes the current periodic table?
The variable is protons. Each element in the periodic table of elements has one more proton in its nucleus than the element before it (starting with hydrogen, which has one proton).
Smallest element in the periodic table?
Hydrogen (H) - with a single proton and electron.
How many electron and proton are found?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
What is the smallest element that maintains the properties of an element?
The smallest element on the Periodic Table is Hydrogen. It has only 1 electron in 1 electron shell and 1 proton in it's nucleus.
What element in the periodic table has the smallest radius?
Hydrogen because it has only one proton and one electron
How is element with atomic number 82 in the periodic table different from the element with atomic number 81?
one more proton, and electron
How is the element With atomic number 82 in the Periodic table Different from the element With atomic number 81?
one more proton, and electron
Where in the periodic table would have the least massive atom?
The element hydrogen is least massive as it has only one proton, one electron.
How many proton and electron are in chlorine?
17 protons and 17 electrons in chlorine.
What is the simplest element on a periodic table?
Hydrogen is because it has only one proton and one electron.
This element has the smallest atoms of all the elements?
Hydrogen has the smallest atoms of any element, as it has only 1 electron in 1 electron shell and 1 proton. This is why it's first on the Periodic Table.
What makes each element different from the previous one?
The previous element in the periodic system (by ordered atom number) has ONE proton and one electron LESS per atom
Is hydrogen an element?
Hydrogen is the simplest, lightest element. It normally occurs as "protium", the atom having one proton and one electron.
