No. A neutron is neutral, while a proton has a positive charge. Incidentally, an electron has a negative charge.
These two atoms are isotopes of each other. They have the same atomic number (protons) but different mass numbers due to their different numbers of neutrons. This means they will differ in terms of stability and possibly some properties, but they will have the same charge and occupy the same position on the periodic table.
Wrong! For example we take on hydrogen atom which has 1 proton in his nucleus and one electron 'gravitating'(gravitating is not an appropriate word because of the quantum origin of all elementary particles, as they can be expressed both either parcitle if they are observed, or a wave) In nature there is a "heavy" atom of hydrogen which is called deuterium. It has 1 proton and 1 neutron in its nucleus. There are 3 types of hydrogen atoms known. The pattern is the same for almost all elements.
All hydrogen atoms are the same but they are different from the atoms of other elements.
Basically,there are two things that make 2 atoms isotopes 1: there atomic number should be same(Number of protons/electrons should be the same) 2:there mass number (i.e number of neutrons+protons) should be the same. Hope this helps
Oxygen and hydrogen are two different elements, and have their own specific atomic structure. If they were made of the same atoms, they'd be the same elements (which they are not) and have the same name (which they don't).
No, that is why we have isotops. Example: hydrogen can have 0,1,2 neutrons
it is neutral as the protons and the neutrons are the same amount.
No, not all atoms have neutrons in their nuclei. Some atoms, known as isotopes, can have varying numbers of neutrons in their nuclei while still belonging to the same element. For example, hydrogen has three isotopes: protium (no neutrons), deuterium (one neutron), and tritium (two neutrons).
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons (they belong to the same element), but differing numbers of neutrons. Thus, deuterium and tritium are are uncommon isotopes of hydrogen, as these have 1 and 2 neutrons, respectively, whereas most hydrogen has no neutrons.
No. Depending on the element and isotope atoms can have different numbers of protons and neutrons, ranging from 1 proton and no neutrons in hydrogen-1 to 118 protons and 176 neutrons in ununoctium-294.
No. Not all hydrogen atoms (particles) are the same. Most do not contain any neutrons, but there are some that do contain 1 or even 2 neutrons. So, they are different.
Protons and neutrons provide the mass of an atom. Each different kind of element has a unique number of protons. For example: all hydrogen atoms have one proton. However, not all hydrogen atoms have the same mass. Some hydrogen atoms have no neutrons, one neutron, or two neutrons. Atoms of the same element (one proton) but different numbers of neutrons (different masses) are called isotopes of that element. All elements have isotopes. Some isotopes of elements are radioactive and are useful in medicine and energy applications (nuclear, for instance).
Yes, in general. All hydrogen atoms contain one proton, most with no neutrons and all neutral atoms with one electron - and the electron has a much smaller mass. Some hydrogen atoms contain one (or, rarely, two) neutrons and so are heavier. But on average the atom has a mass much the same as a proton.
Atoms of the same kind. To be more precise, all atoms in an element have the same number of protons (but not necessarily the same number of neutrons - do some reading on "isotopes" for more details).
Neutrons. As an example, hydrogen has three isotopes, Hydrogen, Duterium and Tritium. Hydrogen atoms consist of one proton and one electron. Duterium atoms consist of one proton, one electron and one neutron. Tritium atoms consist of one proton, one electron and two neutrons.
Yes, this is the nucleus. It is composed of a number of protons and neutrons (except Hydrogen, which has 1 proton and zero neutrons). Both protons and neutrons have about the same mass (which is much more massive relative to the electron). A proton has a positive electric charge, and a neutron does not have an electric charge.
Neutrons in the nucleus, so you have isotopes of the same element, For example hydrogen, deuterium and tritium.
