B. Neutrons or Protons Adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes the charge of the nucleus and changes that atom's atomic number. For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium. (Actually, a few neutrons have to be added as well to make the new nucleus stable, but the end result is still helium.)
