Dear questioner,
As an answer to your question I should mention there are atoms which have the same number of protons but are considered different. These atoms are called Isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but the number of Neutrons are not the same. Isotopes have the same chemical virtues but in the physical virtues related to mass they are a bit different.

Are the number of electrons different from every atom of every element?
Each element has a different number of electrons. All atoms of that element have the same number of electrons. The number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
What determines the atomic number of a substance?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, while the atomic mass is the total mass of the nucleus (both protons and neutrons)
What does istope mean?
- the same chemistry, the same number of electrons and protons - except for different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus. Examples are 12C and 14C (6 and 8 neutrons) and 235U and 238U (146 and 143 neutrons).
What is an atom with more or fewer neutrons than atoms of the same element?
An atom of a certain element with a different number of neutrons compared with the common form of the element is called an isotope. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons in an atom, but a different number of neutrons (which means that they have a different atomic mass number).
What does a atom contain?
All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and electrons (in the neutral state).
Do all aluminum atoms have the same number of protons?
yes, all aluminum atoms have the same number of protons. The number of protons in an atom give it its identity. Isotopes are different atoms of the same element with the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons.
Do protons of an element vary?
All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. The number of protons determines the element.
What's the difference between an atomic number in the mass number of an Atom?
All the atoms of a particular element have the same atomic number (number of protons). The atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. For example, all oxygen atoms have 8 protons and all sodium atoms have 11 protons. The mass number of an atom is the total number of protons and neutrons it contains.
Atom of an element with a different number of protons?
This is not possible. The number of protons identifies an element, and all of the atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. The atoms of an element can, however, have different numbers of neutrons, and they are called isotopes.
All the atoms in every element?
neutral, with the number of protons equaling the number of electrons.
Why do all atoms have the same number of protons?
All atoms don't have the same number of Protons.
What are Atoms with the same number of protons are?
All atoms with the same number of protons are atoms of the same element. The number of protons is the atomic number of the element.
In what way are atoms of one element different from atoms of other elements?
The number of electrons and neutrons may differ for atoms of the same element. However, what distinguishes atoms of one element from those of a different element is the number of protons in the atom's nucleus. All of the atoms of an element have the same number of protons, which is the single most important determiner of the properties of an element.
What is the same about all atoms of one elements?
They have the same number of protons.
What does every atom in a particular element have in common?
They all have the same number of neutrons. All atoms of a given element have a specific number of protons. That is what gives an element its elemental identity. But we know that different atoms of a given element can have different numbers of neutrons. These different atoms of the same element are the isotopes of that element. All the atoms of a given isotope of a given element will have the same number of protons and will have the same number of neutrons. all isotopes of an atom have same number of proton but they have different number of neutron so they have same chemical properties and different physical properties. all isotopes of an atom have same number of proton but they have different number of neutron so they have same chemical properties and different physical properties.
True or false atoms of different elements have the same never of protons?
All atoms of the same element are the same.7) Isotopes are a family of atoms all of which have the same number of electrons, have the same number of protons in their atomic centers, but different numbers of neutrons.
Do all lithium atoms contain the same number of protons?
All the lithium atoms contain the same number of protons.
