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.

Significant digits are the number of digits that reflect the precision of a measurement or number.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Significant digits are numbers that helps to present the precision of measurements calculations.

Numbers that do not contribute to the precision of a reading should not be counted as significant.

There are rules of assigning significant numbers:

  • Leading or trailing zeros are insignificant and should only be counted as a place holder.
  • All non-zero digits are significant
  • Zeroes between non-zero digits are significant.
  • Leading zeros in a decimal are significant before the number.
  • All the numbers in a scientific notation are significant.
