no. elements are categorized by the number of protons. also if there are no protons. then it is no longer an atom

Which element has the smallest number of proton in its atom?
The element with one proton per atom is hydrogen.
How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?
A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .
What is an elementary particle that is identical with the nucleus of the hydrogen atom?
A single proton
What happens if an atom of uranium loses a proton?
Uranium minus a proton (hydrogen atom) is protactinium.? That is, if you could get it to do that - this is an unusual reaction.
What is the simplest atom that contains one proton one electron and no neutrons?
Hydrogen
Which element has the smallest number of proton in its atom?
The element with one proton per atom is hydrogen.
How much bigger is a hydrogen atom than a proton?
A hydrogen atom has a diameter of about 60 picometers while a proton has a diameter of 1.75 femotometers. So a hydrogen atom's diameter is about 35,000 times that of a proton.
What element has 1 proton in each atom?
Hydrogen has one proton in its nucleus.
What proton of an atom never changes in chemistry?
Hydrogen proton
Which element has the smallest number of proton in the atom?
The element with one proton per atom is hydrogen.
If a proton was 1cm across how big would the atom be?
The answer for a hydrogen atom would be about 100 meters across a proton is about 1/10,000 th of the diameter of a hydrogen atom.
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.
How is a hydrogen atom is different than a proton?
A hydrogen atom, H, is a proton (as nucleus) with one electron orbitting around it. A proton is just (the same as above) one proton, which lacks the electron: H+ .
Because a hydrogen atom does not contain a neutron hydrogen ions can be thought of as what?
a Proton. A hydrogen-1 atom (the most abundant isotope of hydrogen) has no neutrons and only 1 proton. So the atom is 1 proton and 1 electron. So the ion, when the electron is removed, the entire ion is just 1 single proton.
Which atom has 1 proton in its nucleus?
Hydrogen
What atom has 1 proton in its nucleus?
Hydrogen
You have 1 electron 1 proton and 1 neutron. What are you?
You are an atom of heavy hydrogen, or deuterium. Most hydrogen has one proton and one electron, which form a neutral atom. But once in a while, a neutron will stick to the proton, and then the atom, which is still hydrogen (it has just the one proton) will be about twice as massive as "regular" or "common" hydrogen. It is another isotope of hydrogen called heavy hydrogen or deuterium.
