Depends on the element. Check out the "Periodic Table".
The atomic mass is the combined mass of the protons, neutrons and electrons in an element. It can be found below the element's symbol on the periodic table.
To find out the number of electrons in an element you must add the protons and neutrons and subtract that number with the atomic mass, this will determine the amount of electrons because the unknown element could be an isotope and have more than the normal amount of electrons of the non isotope element.
an ion has a different number of electrons and an isotope has a different number of neutrons then listed on the Periodic Table or your sample
Only carbon has 6 protons. Specifically, this is a neutral atom of the isotope 12C.

protons,neutrons,electrons, and the element name
The atomic mass is the combined mass of the protons, neutrons and electrons in an element. It can be found below the element's symbol on the periodic table.
The mass of an element is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom. It is usually listed right on the periodic table.
If you know the atomic no. and atomic mass, then the no. of electrons, no. of protons and no. of neutrons can also be determined. Atomic No.=No. of electrons = No. of protons. No. of neutrons=Atomic mass-Atomic no. Also, by no. of electrons you can determine its valency and the no. of valence electrons.
Firstly an element's mass, then the element's total number of combined protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The periodic table can be used to quickly determine characteristics (number of valence electrons for example) of an element.
To find out the number of electrons in an element you must add the protons and neutrons and subtract that number with the atomic mass, this will determine the amount of electrons because the unknown element could be an isotope and have more than the normal amount of electrons of the non isotope element.
an element which is then broken down into: protons, neutrons, and electrons. for a list of elements see a periodic table
Well there is protons, electrons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus and the electron i outside revolving around it. The number of them depends on what periodic element specifically.
They determine many things. They can be used to predice hybridization, determine octet, be used to assign formal charges. The simplest answer would be for a intro to chem class, they determine the number of electrons in the atom's "outer ring"
