Electrons are all being added to the same "p" sublevel so no new energy levels are being added. Actually as you go across the size will decrease slightly due to the increase in the charge of the nucleus.

What happens to an atomic level when an element melts?

The atomic level is unchanged.


What happend to the atomic number of an element which emits alpha particle and two beta particle?

THe atomic number would decrease by 2 as alpha particle comes out. But for two beta particles the atomic number would increase by 2. So the atomic number remains unchanged due to emission of one alpha followed by 2 beta particles.

When an unstable isotope breaks down but doesn't change to another element the atomic number always?

The atomic number is unchanged.


What determent's an atoms identity?

An atom's identity is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which is called its atomic number. This number determines the element to which the atom belongs. Electrons can be gained or lost to form ions, but as long as the number of protons remains the same, the atom's identity remains unchanged.


What is the atomic name for oxygen?

It remains "oxygen."


Which sub-atomic particle cannot change?

The sub-atomic particles does not change is electron. Electron not remains negatively charged but its mass remains the same too.


When an unstable krypton nucleus undergoes beta decay the nucleus formed is that of?

When an unstable krypton nucleus undergoes beta decay, it transforms into a stable rubidium nucleus. In beta decay, a neutron in the krypton nucleus is converted into a proton, resulting in an increase of one atomic number while the mass number remains unchanged. This process changes the element from krypton (atomic number 36) to rubidium (atomic number 37).


What happen to atomic number and mass number of nucleus when it emits electron?

When a nucleus emits an electron, the atomic number increases by 1 since the nucleus gains a proton. However, the mass number remains the same because an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.


What is the atomic mass of a diamond?

As diamonds are almost pure carbon, the atomic mass would be carbon's atomic mass: 12.0107


If an isotope undergoes beta emission?

If an isotope undergoes beta emission, a neutron in the nucleus is transformed into a proton, along with the emission of a beta particle (an electron) and an antineutrino. This process increases the atomic number of the nucleus by one but leaves the mass number unchanged.
