it depends which number you are referring to. in the periodic table, the numbers referr to number of protons and then relative Atomic Mass.
the larger number is relative atomic mass and the smaller number is the number of protons for example, chlorine, has a relative atomic mass of 35.5 and a proton number of 17
Yes, the number of protons in an atom of an element determines the element's identity. It determines the element's atomic number, which is unique for each element.
No that is not true. The number of PROTONS determines what the element is.
The number of protons determines the element's atomic number. When combined with the number of neutrons, it determines the element's atomic mass.
The number of protons.
The number of protons in the atomic nucleus determines what element it is. Each element has a unique number of protons, known as its atomic number.
Protons. This determines what material the element is.
The number of electrons in an element determines its chemical properties and behavior. Specifically, it influences how an element will bond with other elements to form compounds and determines its reactivity.
proton you can change the number of neutrons and electrons and still have the same element
The number of protons in each nucleus of an atom of the element.
The number of protons in each nucleus of an atom of the element.
The number of protons, which are found in the nucleus of an atom.
An element's atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element. It is unique to each element and determines its position on the periodic table. The atomic number also determines the element's chemical properties.
