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.

Is the sky actually blue?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

When we look at an arbitrary point in the sky, away from the sun, we see only the light that was redirected by the atmosphere into our line of sight. Because that occurs much more often for blue light than for red, the sky appears blue. Violet light is actually scattered even a bit more strongly than blue.
