The proton is an elementary particle with the mass 1.00727646677 atomic units of mass and the electrical charge +1. It is a hydrogen ion in which one electron is lost. But since hydrogen only has one electron and one proton, a hydrogen ion is just called a "proton", since only a proton is left.

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.


How many protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of a helium-4 atom if it has twice as many protons as a hydrogen atom?

A hydrogen atom has 1 proton in its nucleus. Since the helium-4 atom has twice as many protons as hydrogen, it has 2 protons. Helium-4 also has 2 neutrons, hence the name "4" representing the total number of protons and neutrons.


Number of protons in a hydrogen?

The "NUMBER" (#) of Protons in an Atom of Hydrogen is one (1). The number of protons is what makes a specific element that element. Hydrogen always has one proton no matter what. If someone says that a hydrogen atom has two protons(they are incorrect), it is no longer hydrogen; it is the element Helium.

How many protons does a standard hydrogen have?

A standard hydrogen atom has 1 proton. The Atomic Number of any element is the number of protons that element has.


Can hydrogen atoms have more than one proton?

No. Elements are given their names (like "Hydrogen" or "Gold") solely on their number of protons. If a Hydrogen atom had any other number of protons than one, it would not be a Hydrogen atom.
