son, nuclei refers to both neutrons and protons that form the nucleus of an atom. From a physics website
[url]In 1911, Ernest Rutherford discovered that at the core of every atom is a nucleus. Atomic nuclei consist of electrically positive protons and electrically neutral neutrons.
https://www.energy.gov/science/doe-explainsnuclei[/url]
Maybe I should have used "child speak" and said that hydrogen atoms have only 1 component in their nuclei? Am just not sure why you didn't know that grownups say nuclei. After all, if you have 2 hydrogen atoms then it is nuclei and not nucleus. It's plural.
And with helium, it has 4 components in its nucleus/nuclei. Feel better? If you were more familiar with physics I wouldn't need to use "child speak" son.
Still, for all intents and purposes, hydrogen is the smallest atom.

Harvey, I totally groove on what you are saying ... except that there is a reason it is called the "Periodic Table of the Elements" and not the "Atomic Values Listing"

The periodic table is itself an amazing model of matter that coincidentally makes for a great look-up chart, but that is incidental. The fact that there are 18 items per row, identifying the left-hand column as volatile elements and the right-hand column as stable elements, and some items as groups, e.g. lanthanoids, actinoids, etc.. explains/guides users as to the bahavior of matter, over and above their respective numerical values. The periodic table provides such governance to chemists through shell configurations, melting and boiling points, oxidation states, ionization, etc., i.e. an entire host of characteristics that define behavior and not just static measurements and allow users to predict how matter will behave.

The periodic table is a model, not just a listing.

Nope. The protons and neutrons that comprise the nucleus of a molecule are called "protons" and "neutrons" respectively.

When you have multiple molecules you then have multiple nuclei.

Oh, btw ... notice how you are about 18 picometers bigger when you are in hydrogen.

And yet beta radiation is a radioactive isotope of helium. If you don't get it, the nucleus of an atom could be composed of nuclei. ie., a general term for protons and neutrons can be nuclei. It's all a part of the composition and thus is what it is. Why when its strong force weakens or is weakened it would lose a part of its nuclei. But you haven't read anything like text books which get into nuclear physics, have you?
At the same time, it is considered that the hydrogen atom is the smallest. It's radius for the most part doesn't matter. It's just that it's composed of so little is why. Debating semantics is counterproductive.
Kind of why your friend the Ferengi compares my pursuit to "alchemy" when it's not. At least ITN understood that I am hoping to demonstrate a new theory in atmospheric chemistry and physics. It's just that I would be bring astrophysics into play.


p.s., what is the possessive tense of nucleus? Nuclei? It works for me. But good job on your web search son. Next, search beta radiation.

OMG son, you can ask for salvation. Seriously though, 2He which is also known as 2/4He (2protons/4 ? in it's nucleus) is beta radiation. If you ever heard of the Incredible Hulk, he was affected by gamma radiation.
Gamma radiation is radioactive wave energy while beta radiation is radioactive particle radiation. If you want me to keep calling you son, you do need to know these basic differences in nuclear physics. Some will call it "atomic" physics, same thing.
It is all my fault son, I thought I had taught you better. I have to accept how I failed you in this way.

I think this is where you're getting into particle physics. Boson's are are a group of particles that the Einstein-Bose Condensate Theorem quantifies (not familiar with particle physics? then the term predicts might be more to your liking?). Originally there were 6 types of such particles but the group has grown over time.
Are we sure that we want to get into theoretical physics? That's the area where bosons are considered to exist. I mean this discussion could get interesting. At the same time, particle physics might be best avoided.

Mass is not a measure of size. It's how the English language works. No one would ever say that this ruggedized military power generator is somehow bigger than a bouncy castle:







p.s. Guess which one has more mass.

The reason the hydrogen atom is considered as the smallest element is because it possesses the least amount of energy.

Atoms are not energy. The hydrogen atom is more reactive than the helium atom.
James___ wrote:
What allows it to be useful for hydrogen cells is that it easily gives up its electron when it forms a covalent bond with the oxygen element.

Because hydrogen is more reactive then helium.

Hydrogen is not the smallest atom. Helium is. All atoms have only one nucleus. A nuclei is not in a nucleus. It is the plural of nucleus. Learn English.

There is only one aspect that defines hydrogen...the number of protons in it's nucleus.

Science is not a thing that is 'insulted'. It is not possible to insult science. It has no emotion. It does not take offense.

Make your own chart, if you want different information handy, for your philosophical experiments. The periodic table works fine, for the purpose it was designed for.


So where on the periodic table do you find a bat claw, or a roasted earwig, or essence of nightshade picked in the light of the full moon?

Nope. Not beta radiation, not the cause of it.
Beta radiation is caused by a neutron decaying into a proton-electron pair, and the electron is ejected. When it happens to hydrogen, it becomes helium. The mass of the atom does not change.
James___ wrote:

Gamma radiation is radioactive wave energy while beta radiation is radioactive particle radiation.

Photons are both a particle and a wave. Gamma radiation is photons emitted from the decay of an electron-positron pair into two photon. It is high energy light, since the rest mass of the electron-positron pair is converted directly into energy.

The He4 that you're talking about might actually be 2/4He. 2 protons and electrons with 4 something in the middle. Yeah! (4 being the number of components in the nucleus)>
Science is rigid in this fashion. As an isotope it can be radioactive decay. Bosons have an intrinsic quality that is expressed in physics.
Bosons can be cooled relative to a specific process. This has to do with the Einstein-Bose Condensate Theorem. Why originally only 6 types of matter qualified.

That number grew as the types of matter that could be affected by such a theorem grew. This gets far more technical than what is discussed in this forum.
