Question

What effect dose changing the number of electrons, protons and neutrons have on an atom?

Answer 1

Answer:

Change the number of neutrons in an atom and it becomes an isotope, change the number of electrons, it becomes an ion. When you change the number of protons in an atom, you will change the atom from one element to a different element. Sometimes, when you add a proton to an element, the element will become radioactive.
