An element with 1 proton is hydrogen. An Isotope called Tritium has one Proton and two Neutrons. Hope this helps.
Their are only 2 shells in the hydrogen atom.
neutrons
Each isotope of hydrogen has 1 proton in the nucleus. The difference between the isotopes lies in the number of neutrons: hydrogen-1 has 0 neutrons, hydrogen-2 (deuterium) has 1 neutron, and hydrogen-3 (tritium) has 2 neutrons.
A hydrogen atom has 1 proton and 1 electron regardless of the isotope.Standard hydrogen(protium) has zero neutrons.The deuterium isotope has 1 neutron and the tritium (very radioactive) has 2 neutrons.
The definitive answer is 'Isotopes have a different numbers of neutrons'. Taking hydrogen as an example. Iy has three isotopes. #1 ; protium ; 1 proto and 1 electron 0 neutrons (The commonest isotope) #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 electrons 1 neutron. (Used to make ;heavy water') #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton , 1 electron, and 2(TWO) neutrons. (Very rare and radio-active).

neutrons
For the same element the number of protons and electrons remains unaltered. Howerm for that same element the number of neutrons can vary., leading to different atomic masses. Taking hydrogen as an example. It has three isotopes. #1 ; protium ; 1 proton , 0 neutrons (Atomic Mass ; 1 + 0 = 1 ) #2 ; deuterium ; 1 proton , 1 neutron ( Atomic mass ; 1 + 1 = 2) #3 ; tritium ; 1 proton, 2 neutrons ( Atomic Mass ; 1 + 2 = 3) Notice for each isotope of hydrogen there is only ONE proton. However, for each different isotope of hydrogen there is a different number of neutrons. The Atomic Mass is the sum of the protons and neutrons). #4 ; Helium(He) ; 2 protons, 2 neutrons ( atomic mass 2 + 2 = 4 ). For comparison helium has 2(TWO) protons and 2 neutrons, but it is an entirely different element, because it has a different number of protons.
Tritium (Hydrogen-3, H3, T) has 1 Proton, 2 Neutrons, and 1 Electron.
Hydrogen - 1 proton, 1 electron Deuterium - 1 proton, 1 neutron 1 electron Tritium - 1 proton, 2 neutrons, 1 electron
Number of proton = atom numberfor example:Hydrogen has 1 proton and its atom number is also 1Number of neutrons + number of protons = mass numberfor example:Hydrogen have 1 proton and and NO neutrons, so the mass number is 1Helium has 2 protons and and 2 neutrons, so the mass number is 4

Normal Hydrogen has 1 proton Deuterium has 1 proton and 1 neutron Tritium has 1 proton and 2 neutrons.
Yes, the number of neutrons can be any number you want it to be, however there is typically only one stable isotope of an element. Radioactive elements and those in the f-block are more likely to have more than one isotope.
Hydrogen has three isotopes: protium (1H), deuterium (2H), and tritium (3H). Protium is the most abundant and consists of one proton and one electron. Deuterium contains one proton, one neutron, and one electron. Tritium has one proton, two neutrons, and one electron.
