its c. anions gain electrons without gaining protons. this increased negetive charge with no increase in positive chare allows electrons to orbit farther from the nuculeus; therefore the ions are larger.

What particles will always have a constant number in one particular element?

Protons remain constant for a specific element, as they determine the element's identity. Electrons can vary but generally match the number of protons for a neutral element. Neutrons can vary slightly within isotopes of an element.


How does the atomic theory of matter explain the law of conservation of mass and law of constant composition?

Each atom of a particular element has a constant (average) weight, and in chemical reactions, the numbers and types of atoms in the reactants must be the same as the numbers and types of atoms in the products. This explains the law of the conservation of mass. Each molecule of a compound or polyatomic element is composed of a fixed number of one or more particular kinds of atoms; this explains the law of constant composition.
