The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom. In a neutral atom, the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons. Therefore, you can conclude that carbon contains 6 protons and 6 electrons.
An element's atomic number is also the number of protons found in the nucleus of atoms of that element. In other words, any atom with six protons in its nucleus is a carbon atom, and all carbon atoms have six protons in their nuclei.
6. The number of protons is the same as the atomic number of a normal (not ionized) atom.
6 protons 6 neutrons 6 electrons 4 valence electrons
Its the atomic number 6
carbon has atomic number 6. It has 6 protons.
carbon has 2 electrons in its first energy level and 4 in its secound energy level because carbons atomic number is 6. 4+2=6.
The atomic number for hydrogen is 1 and the atomic number for carbon is 6.

Atomic Number = 6. Atomic Weight = 12.011
it has 6 electons. atomic number is 6. Atomic Mass is 12.011

Carbon is a non metal element. Atomic number of it is 47.

The atomic number is the number of protons found in an atom's nucleus, so the number of protons in carbon is six.
6 protons 6 neutrons 6 electrons 4 valence electrons
Carbon's atomic number is 6, which is the same as the number of protons and the number of the electrons. Most carbon atoms have 6 neutrons as well through some have 7 or 8.
6 carbons 6 carbons
All atoms on the periodic table are assumed to be neutral. This means that they will have an equal number of protons and neutrons. EXAMPLE: carbons atomic number is 6 because it has 6 protons. If it is neutral it will also have 6 neutrons. That is why you see carbons atomic weight is 12 on the periodic table. 6 protons+6neutrons=12. Howevever you could come across carbon 14, this would be called an isotope of carbon. The number of protons in an atom can not change because the number of protons are what make an element what it is. Meaning all carbon atoms will always have 6 protons no matter how many neutrons they have. So, if you have carbon 14, and ALL carbon has 6 protons then carbon 14 has 8 neutrons.
Atomic number is 6 and the number of neutrons is 8
