An atom becomes an ion through ordinary electron loss. Which statements about what changes are correct? Select all that apply.

  1. Its proton count changes.
  2. Its electron count changes.Respuesta correcta
  3. Its mass number changes.
  4. Its isotope identity stays the same.Respuesta correcta
