Look at the chemical formula. NaCl is one atom of Na and one atom of Cl. NaCl is your common table salt. Water H2O, is two atoms of Hydrogen and one atom of Oxygen, H and O. Here is a link to a good table of elements

The blank is the particle in the nucleus of an atom that carries a positive charge and is counted to identify the atomic number?
Proton.
Which subatomic particle distinguishes one element from another?
The number of protons in an atom determines the identity of the element.See these two related questions for more information:[http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_the_atomic_number_and_what_does_it_tell_you_about_the_number_of_protons_in_an_atomWhat is the atomic number and what does it tell you about the number of protons in an atom?]and[http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_find_the_number_of_protons_and_electrons_and_neutrons_in_an_atomHow do you find the number of protons and electrons and neutrons in an atom?]
What can be created by forcing electrons to flow from atom to atom?
The flow of electrons from atom to atom is an electrical current.

Yes
Who was the first person to identify the atom?
Democritus.
Is it positive to identify an atom by the number of protons it has?
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom positively identifies the element of which the atom is an example, whether the atom is neutral or ionized.

What is used identify an atom?
Atoms are normally identified according to the element of which that atom is an example. And that, in turn, is determined by the number of protons in the atom's nucleus. So, any atom that has just one proton is a hydrogen atom. If it has two protons it is a helium atom. And so forth.
