Each atom of one specific element has the same number of protons. For example, Helium has 1 proton in every atom's nucleus. To find how many protons are in an elements atoms nucleus, look at the elements atomic number on the Periodic Table.

How are atoms connected to an element?
Well the connection between atoms and elements is they are a compound... Usually compounds have quite different properties (e.g. colour, texture, taste, smell and density) from the elements whose atoms they contain... For example: the compound of water is a liquid at room temperature. Water contains atoms of the elements hydrogen and oxygen, which exist in air as colourless glass - quite different to water...

An element is determined by the number of?
An element can be identified by the number of protons in the nucleus of its atoms.
Why are atoms and elements alike?
Because the differences in atoms make different elements. Elements are multiple of similar atoms.
How are atoms and elements relate?
How are elements and atoms related? An element is a substance that contains only a single type of atom. The number of atoms is not important as long as all the atoms are of the same type. You cannot separate an element into other substances..... there are as many elements as atoms - more them 100.
What elements do elements and compounds have in common?
Elements and compounds are both composed of atoms. Compounds are composed of two or more atoms of different elements.
What is the unit of weight for elements?
Atoms are the basic units of elements.
Which kind of elements are made of atoms?
