By changing the number of protons in an element, you are fundamentally changing it to a different element.
It’s worth remembering that:
Protons identify the element
Electrons determine properties and behavior of the element
Neutrons contribute to isotopes and just help keep everything stable, by separating the charges. Remember opposites attract. Like charges repel.
