The nucleus of a hydrogen atom (specifically, the most common isotope, protium, ^1H) has an atomic number of 1 and a mass number of 1. This means it contains one proton and no neutrons. Electrons orbit the nucleus and are not part of it. Therefore, the nucleus of a hydrogen atom consists of one proton only. The final answer is A. That's 2 down. 3 left today — send the next one.
