Explanation:
· Isotopes of Hydrogen:
· Protium: Atomic number = 1, Mass number = 1
· Deuterium: Atomic number = 1, Mass number = 2
· Tritium: Atomic number = 1, Mass number = 3
· Tritium:
· Tritium is the heaviest isotope of hydrogen.
· It has 1 proton, 2 neutrons, and 1 electron.
· Atomic number: The number of protons = 1 (same for all hydrogen isotopes).
