What else can I help you with?
An atom of thorium loses 2 protons what element would be left?
Radium - 228.
What element does thorium become if it emits an alpha particle?
The nuclear reaction is: 232Th--------------- 228Ra + α
What is The number of protons in an atom of an element is the element's?
The number of protons in an atom of an element is equal to the number of electrons in that atom which is equal to that element's atomic number.
How many electrons does thorium -230 have?
Thorium 230 has 90 protons and 140 neutrons - the difference is 50.
What happens when the number of protons in an atom change?
When the number of protons in an atom changes, the identity of the element changes because the number of protons determines the element's atomic number. If the number of protons changes, the atom becomes a different element. This process is called nuclear fusion or fission.
An atom of thorium loses 2 protons what element would be left?
Radium - 228.
What element does thorium become if it emits an alpha particle?
The nuclear reaction is: 232Th--------------- 228Ra + α
If an atom loses 2 protons what element would be left?
Well what element are you starting out with?
What is an atom called if it loses a proton?
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.
What is the number of protons and electrons in thorium?
Thorium's atomic number is 90. Thus, thorium has 90 protons per atom. To be electrically neutral then, thorium must also have 90 electrons per atom.
How many electrons are there in Thorium?
Thorium is a metal element. There are 90 electrons in a single atom.
Which element has 90 electrons as a neutral atom?
Thorium (Th).
An ion is formed when am atom?
An ions is formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.
What is The number of protons in an atom of an element is the element's?
The number of protons in an atom of an element is equal to the number of electrons in that atom which is equal to that element's atomic number.
If an atom loses an ion it has a charge of?
protons
How many electrons does thorium -230 have?
Thorium 230 has 90 protons and 140 neutrons - the difference is 50.
Atom with 7 protons?
An atom with 7 protons is a nitrogen atom. Protons determine the element of an atom, so an element with 7 protons is always nitrogen, which has the atomic number 7.
