A proton is just one constituent of an atom therefore the atom is more complex.

Where in an atom do you find a proton?

You can find a proton (+) in the center of a atom.


What element has 1 more proton than hydrogen?

The atomic number is equivalent to its number of protons. One proton in atom is its atomic number is 1. Hydrogen is the only atom with one proton.


What can be considered to be the combination of a proton and an electron?

The pair form a hydrogen atom.There is a fallacy that's taught about this pairing, which is that the electron-proton pair form a neutron. See my answer to the question "What particle has the same mass as a hydrogen atom?" for more details about this, and why it is wrong.


What is the positively charge atomic particle of an atom called?

A Proton


What is the proton for xenon?

A proton is a subatomic particle which is the same in whichever element it is found. A proton from a Xenon atom is no different to that from a Hydrogen atom or a Uranium atom.


Dose the proton have an impact on the size of the atom?

The proton CHARGE has an impact (if the proton's charge were different, the atom's size would be different). However, the proton SIZE is more or less irrelevant. The increase in size of the atom due to the proton is very very negligible. It has been proven that the density of the Nucleus is constant in all atoms of all elements. This means, the nucleus does increase in size, if there are more protons. However, The majority of the size of an atom comes from the electron orbits. Thus the main factor for atom size is electron orbits.


Can you generate the electricity by the moving of proton as electron?

No. While the proton has the opposite charge of the electron, the proton will not flow from atom to atom like the electron does because the strong atomic force holding the proton in the nucleus is much more powerful than the electromagnetic force.


Give you a sentence using the word proton?

A proton is one of the particles in an atom. An example sentence would be: The scientist realized he was looking at the wrong proton.


What is the positive charge in an atom called?

the positively charged part of an atom is called proton


Which results in a more highly valued atom adding or subtracting a proton from a gold nucleus?

Adding a proton to a gold nucleus would result in a more highly charged and thus more highly valued atom. This would change the element from gold to a different element with a higher atomic number, potentially leading to different chemical and physical properties.


Where about in an atom would you find a proton?

You can find a proton in the nucleus of the atom along with neutrons.


The particle of an atom that carries a positive charge is called what?

There are three main particles in an atom. The electron, which is negatively charged, the proton, which is positively charged, and the neutron, which carries no charge.
