Continue adding protons until there are six protons in the nucleus.Record the information provided at each step to complete the table.

Step 1: Start with a nucleus with no protons. The atomic number is 0 and the element is not defined.

Step 2: Add one proton to the nucleus. The atomic number is now 1, which corresponds to Hydrogen.

Step 3: Add another proton. The atomic number is now 2, which corresponds to Helium.

Step 4: Add a third proton. The atomic number is now 3, which corresponds to Lithium.

Step 5: Add a fourth proton. The atomic number is now 4, which corresponds to Beryllium.

Step 6: Add a fifth proton. The atomic number is now 5, which corresponds to Boron.

Step 7: Add a sixth proton. The atomic number is now 6, which corresponds to Carbon.

So, by adding protons one by one, we have transformed our nucleus from an undefined element to Carbon.
