the number of protons in an atom is what determines which element the atom is. So if an atom "lost" a proton, it would become another element entirely.
When carbon loses a beta particle, it becomes nitrogen. This is because beta decay involves the transformation of a neutron into a proton, leading to the element changing by one on the periodic table.
Such a chemical species is called a conjugate base.
If an atom looses an electron, neither the atomic mass nor atomic weight change appreciatively. If it looses a proton or neutron, both atomic mass and atomic weight decrease by one and it becomes an atom of a different element (on loss of a proton), or a different isotope of the same element (upon loss of a neutron).
Sodium typically loses an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration in its outer shell rather than gaining a proton, as protons are found in the nucleus and not easily gained or lost in chemical reactions. Sodium forms a positive charge by losing an electron to become a sodium cation (Na+).
If an atom of uranium loses a proton, it becomes an atom of an element with one less proton in its nucleus, known as an isotope of a different element. This change can alter the atomic number, mass number, and chemical properties of the atom.
in alpha decay it loses a helium nucleus (2 protons, 2 neutrons)in beta decay a neutron converts to a proton and it ejects an electron and a neutrinoin gamma decay an excited nuclear state relaxes and a gamma photon is emittedin "k-capture" an inner electron is eaten by the nucleus converting a proton to a neutron and it ejects a neutrinothere are also a few other mechanisms.

i turns into the element on the left of it on the periodic table
In alpha decay, the nucleus loses two protons and two neutrons. The resulting element will therefore have an element number that is two less.In beta minus decay, a neutron gets converted to a proton. The resulting element will have one more proton - the element number will be one more. In beta plus decay, a proton gets converted to a neutron. The resulting element will have one less proton - the element number will be one less.
When magnesium transforms into sodium, a second nucleus is not produced. Instead, protons and neutrons are rearranged within the nucleus to form the new element. The number of protons determines the element, so when magnesium loses two protons, it becomes sodium.

an ion is when an element loses or gains one or more electrons. an isotope is when a element loses or gains one or more neutrons. when one or more proton(s) is/are gained or lost, it becomes a different element.
When carbon loses a beta particle, it becomes nitrogen. This is because beta decay involves the transformation of a neutron into a proton, leading to the element changing by one on the periodic table.
The element with atomic number 13 is aluminum (Al). When aluminum loses three electrons, it forms an ion with a 3+ charge, written as Al3+. This ion contains 13 protons, as the number of protons in an element's nucleus is equal to its atomic number.
It loses 2 proton and 2 nutron
If the isotope loses the electron from its nucleus it is called beta decay. However it did not really lose the electron, as the electron never existed in the nucleus prior to the beta decay event happening. Beta decay that generates an electron happens when a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino: the proton usually remains in the nucleus, while the electron and neutrino (which is nearly impossible to detect, but it is always generated) are ejected from the nucleus at high velocity.If the isotope loses the electron from its electron shells it is not any type of decay, it is simple ionization of the atom.
