Percent abundance is not related to atomic number. Atomic number is the number of protons in the atomic nuclei of an element, and is unique to each element.

What is the difference between an elements atomic mass and its number?
The atomic number is the number of protons or, equivalently, the number of electrons. The Atomic Mass also includes the neutrons. Furthermore, the atomic mass is an average of the isotopes of the element weighted according to their abundance.
How atomic number related isotope?
Atomic number is not related to isotopes.
What information would you need to calculate the atomic mass of an atom?
To find the number of neutrons in an isotope you subtract the atomic number from the mass number.
How do you find the atomic mass and the atomic number?
The atomic number is the whole # on the periodic table or the # of protons in an atom. The atomic mass is the # that is not the whole # on the periodic table, or you can multiply the mass of the isotope by its abundance and add the answers together.
How are atomic mass and atomic number related?
The Atomic Mass number is the sum of the atomic number, the number of protons, and the number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom.
In the perodic table the elements are arranged by what?
according to their increasing atomic numbers.
How is cleavage related to a minerals atomic number?
A mineral hasn't an atomic number.
How atomic number is related to proton number?
The atomic number is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom.
How is an atom's atomic number related to the number of protons?
Directly. An atom's atomic number IS the number of protons in the nucleus.
How is atomic mass computed?
The atomic weight of an element is the average of the atomic mass of each individual isotope of that element, weighted by the natural abundance of each isotope.In other words, as an example, if we had an element called "X" that had two isotopes, with mass 10 and 20, and each isotope had the same abundance, then the atomic weight of X would be 15 (that is (10+20)/2 = 15). But if the same element X had the same two isotopes, but now the abundance of the lighter isotope was 90% and the abundance of the heavier isotope was only 10%, then the atomic weight would be much less due to the difference in abundance; that is you would not take a weighted average: 0.9*10 + 0.1*20 = 11.See the Web Link to the left for a chart of all the isotopes of the elements, their individual masses, and their natural abundances. It is with such a chart that the actual atomic weights are calculated.
How is an atoms atomic number related to number of protons?
number of proton is equal to the atomic number of element in Periodic Table
How is an atom's atomic number related to it's number of electrons?
For neutral atoms the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons.
