Tritium

The heaviest isotope of hydrogen,
It has one proton, two neutrons,
And one electron.
If you forget the mass number is three,
Use the prefix tri
You’ll remember the mass,
And the chemistry test you’ll pass.

Great little idea to remember the necessary part to past the test. I did a lot of those when in college classes still remember some of them after 20 years away from the class room. Good job of putting the idea in poetic form. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
