Well, when two elements have the same number of protons, they are atoms of the same element. Each element has its unique proton number. If an atom has 1 atom, it is called Hydrogen. If it has 2, it is called Helium. If it has 20, it is called Calcium. However, the number of neutrons may differ. For example, in the case of Hydrogen, it may have no neutron, 1 neutron or 2 neutrons, and still be called Hydrogen. However, they are called 'isotopes', meaning members of the same element(same number of proton), but having different neutron numbers.
What else can I help you with?
Equal to the number of protons in an atom found on the periodic table?
The atomic number or the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons.
What is the significance of the atomic number of an element?
All elements have protons and electrons. All but hydrogen have neutrons. All elements have isotopes which vary in neutrons but have the same amount of protons as the original element. Different elements never have the same amount of protons so scientists gave these elements their "atomic number" based on the amount of protons the element has. atomic number = amount of protons.
Is an elements reactivity is determined by the number of protons found in an atom of the element?

What is used to find the atomic number of an element?
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of its atom. It is typically found on the periodic table of elements, where elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. Each element has a unique atomic number that distinguishes it from other elements.
How do protons and neutrons relate to an elements atomic number?
Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons in the nucleus determines the element's atomic number. Neutrons are neutral particles also found in the nucleus, and together with protons, they determine the atomic mass of the element.
The atomic number equals the?
It is found by m.g mosly. It is equals or protons that atom has.
What is an elements atomic number?
An element's atomic number is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom of that element. It is a unique identifier for each element on the periodic table.
How many atoms have scientist identafied?
I suppose you mean "kinds of atoms". The answer depends on whether you mean "element" or "isotope". Two isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons. You may consider it a "sub-type". Elements: More than 100. Isotopes: More than 3000.
Are protons neutrons and electrons elements?
No, protons, neutrons, and electrons are not elements. Protons and neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms, while electrons orbit the nucleus. Elements are substances made up of one type of atom, characterized by the number of protons in their nucleus.
What elements have atomic number?
All chemical elements have atomic numbers.
The atomic numbers refer to the?
The atomic number refers to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. It determines the element's identity and its place on the periodic table. The atomic number is unique to each element and allows for classification and organization of elements based on their properties.
