The spin of one hadron does not directly affect the spin of another hadron as the atomic number increases. The spin of a particle is an intrinsic property that characterizes its angular momentum.

In atomic nuclei, hadrons such as protons and neutrons are the constituents. Each proton and neutron carries an intrinsic spin of 1/2, and their spins combine to give the overall spin of the nucleus.

When considering larger atoms with higher atomic numbers, the total spin of the nucleus is determined by the arrangement and combination of protons and neutrons. The individual spins of the protons and neutrons may interact with each other through the strong nuclear force, which can lead to some complex effects on the nuclear structure. However, these interactions are generally described by more advanced theories such as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and nuclear physics.

It is important to note that the total spin of the nucleus is not solely determined by the atomic number but also by the specific arrangement and interactions of the nucleons (protons and neutrons) within the nucleus.
