For Heraclitus "PYR" or "fire" represented the primal element of the eternal and uncreated, ever changing, "ever-living" Cosmos. "All things are an interchange for fire, and fire for all things." This can be seen as his anticipation of the concept of plasma, as used in the plasma cosmology of Alfven, Peratt, and others.

What happens if you change the number of protons of an element?
The element transforms itself into another element because each element have a specific number of protons. If the number of protons changes, the element changes as well. The number of protons in an atom defines it elemental identity, so if the number of protons in an element increases by one it becomes another element.

Is melting a phyical or chemical change?
Physical. Melting is always a physical change.
Why doesnt the number of protons change for a single element while the neutrons and electrons can?
The protons don't change because if the number of protons changes, the type of element the atom is changes. The number of protons determine the species of the atom.
What is pyroelectric element?
An element which displays electricity with change in temperature is called pyroelectric element.
Is an element a physical or chemical change is it homogeneous or heterogeneous?
A chemical element is homogeneous only if it is monoisotopic; but in practice this aspect is neglected. A chemical element is not a "change".

Is a change that produces a new element a physical change?
No, it is a chemical change. ---------------------------------- Yes, it is a physical change because this change not involve a chemical reaction but a nuclear reaction followed by a change in the number of protons and neutrons.
