What is an atom with two neutrons protons and electrons?
If you build an atom using two protons, two neutrons and two electrons you would build an atom of Helium. To be more-precise, this would create Helium-4 the common isotope of Helium.
Can an atom gain or lose protons why or why not?
No, an atom cannot gain or lose protons. Protons are the positively charged particles within the nucleus of an atom, and changing the number of protons would change the atom's identity. However, atoms can gain or lose electrons, which affects their charge but not their identity.
What happens if an atom had two protons?
Adding protons would make it a different element. If Electrons were added to an atom, it would start behaving like another element. For example Fluorine would try to be more like Neon. All elements want balance, so they get as close in relation to these noble gases as possible by sharing, stealing, and giving up electrons
If two protons and two neutrons are added to the nucleus of a carbon atom what nucleus does it become?
The atomic number of carbon is 6. Therefore, carbon has 6 protons. If it gained two more protons, it would have 8 and would become oxygen.
What is the charge of an atom with one electron more than protons?
If the atom has more electrons than protons than the atom will be negative.
What do you call a germanium atom if you remove two protons?
Germanium has thirty two protons. If two were removed, the atom would have thirty protons, making it Zinc.
What would you call a germanium atom if you remove two protons?
If you remove two protons from a germanium atom, it would become a selenium atom. This is because germanium has 32 protons, while selenium has 34 protons.
If there are two electrons in an atom how many protons would be in the atom?
The atom in a normal state would have two protons to match the two electrons, making the overall charge zero. If the atom is an ion, it would have an mismatched number of protons and electrons, giving it a positive or negative overall charge.
What is an atom with two neutrons protons and electrons?
If you build an atom using two protons, two neutrons and two electrons you would build an atom of Helium. To be more-precise, this would create Helium-4 the common isotope of Helium.
If you remove two protons from a germanium atom what do you call it?
If you remove two protons from a germanium atom, it would become a gallium atom. Gallium has atomic number 31, while germanium has atomic number 32. By removing two protons, the atomic number decreases by two, hence the change to gallium.
What two parts of the atom are in the atom?
Protons and neutron
What are the two particles called in the centre of an atom?
Nucleus (and it consists of protons and neutrons).
Atom containing 10 protons would be what atom?
Neon atoms have 10 protons.
How many protons are there per atom?
The number of protons varies for different elements. For example, Hydrogen has only one proton in each atom. That's what makes hydrogen hydrogen. If it had two protons, it would be helium. If there were no protons, then it wouldn't be anything.
An atom that has two protons is?
Helium
Can an atom gain or lose protons why or why not?
No, an atom cannot gain or lose protons. Protons are the positively charged particles within the nucleus of an atom, and changing the number of protons would change the atom's identity. However, atoms can gain or lose electrons, which affects their charge but not their identity.
How is an atoms atomic number related to it's number of protons to electrons?
The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of that atom. The number of electrons will equal the number of protons in that atom if that atom is a neutral one. Other than that, we would have to know the atomic number (which is the number of protons that atom has), and the overall charge of the atom. With that information, we could discover how many electrons that atom had by simple mathematics. If an atom had 11 protons and a charge of +1, it would have one less electron than the number of protons, or 10 electrons. If an atom had 53 protons and a charge of -1, it would have 54 electrons. The ratio from atomic number to the number of protons in an atom is 1:1. The elements are categorized by the number of protons they have, as that is the difference between two elements. Conceptually, atomic number and proton number are the same.
