Answer: atomic number and atomic mass will be increased by 1

The atomic number of an atom is given based on the number of its proton. If the proton increased by 1, then the atomic number will be increased by 1 too.
Atomic mass is calculated by the sum of neutron and proton. If the proton increased by 1, then the atomic mass will be increased by 1 too.
