You really can't do that because it's still the same atom. The 234 part is the amount of Protons the atom has. If the amount of Protons stays the same, then you still have the same atom. If the amount changes then you have a different atom.
By the way, I'm an 11 year old kid that just explained that to you.
answ2. The nature of an element is determined firstly by its chemistry, which is a function of the number of electrons in the shells. The number of the electrons will usually match the number of protons. If you pile in some more neutrons, then you have the same element, but a different isotope.
The origin of this question is perhaps in the recent discussions regarding Thorium reactors. [Instead of uranium ones.]
In principle, a small amount of U233 is added to Thorium, which with absorptions becomes U233, which is more fissile, thus releasing more heat and U233 for the process to continue.
One advantage of this particular process is that the radioactive components are held dissolved in a liquid such as lithium fluoride, and this hot fluid then passes through a heat exchanger which then drives turbines.
Hot fluoride liquids are very corrosive, and there remain many technical problems to be solved.
China and India are both investigating the Thorium process, for both have plenty of Thorium, and lack Uranium.
[The early nuclear power programmes were designed to produce material for military use in bombs. The power output was almost a by-product.]
A physical change does not change the identity of matter.
A change of state is a physical change while a chemical change is not
A change in phase is a physical change.
it is a chemical change
No. A physical change is a change that does not change the chemical composition of a substance, while a chemical change does change the chemical composition of a substance.
Physical change is a change in the structure. Chemical change is a change in the composition. Melting is a physical change. Complexing is a chemical change.
Change what?Change what?
Change No Change was created in 1985.
A chemical change is a change of the identity of a substance. Or A chemical change is a change of the substances into a new substance.
no a change in shape is physical change
No, change of state is a physical change.
A change of state is a molecular change.
change change as in 'small change' or change for a larger bill = monnaie
Social change is a change in society. Cultural change is a change in culture.
it is an change that change the change
A physical change does not change the identity of matter.
no it does not change at all no it does not change at all better answer no it does not change at all
