Understand that a proton is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom with a positive charge.
Recall the common symbols used in chemistry to represent subatomic particles: \(p^{+}\) for proton, \(e^{-}\) for electron, and \(n\) for neutron.
Recognize that \(H^{+}\) represents a hydrogen ion (a proton without its electron), but the symbol specifically for a proton itself is \(p^{+}\).
Note that \(e^{-}\) represents an electron, which has a negative charge, and \(n\) represents a neutron, which has no charge.
Conclude that the correct symbol to represent a proton is \(p^{+}\).
