It is NOT an atom but a 1+ ion of Chlorine Cl+ (atomnumber 17, massnumber 17+18=35) isotope 35.
Only neutral elements have the same number or protons and electrons so what you have is an ion. The atomic number of 17 means the element is Chorine but the symbol would be Cl-1 because it has gained an electron.
Chlorine is the element with 17 protons, and it is a positive ion with a 1+ charge, so the symbol would be 35-Cl+. This is very unusual for chlorine, as it nearly always forms negative ions.
The 17 protons tells us that this element is Chlorine, since atomic number is the number of protons. The additional electron means that the chloride ion has a charge of 1-. So the symbol for the chloride ion is Cl-.
The element that contains 16 protons/electrons && 17 neutrons is known to be Sulphur; it's symbol is S.
25 Mn
A chlorine atom with 17 protons will also have 17 electrons to maintain neutrality. The number of neutrons (18) does not affect the number of electrons in an atom.
An atom of Sulfur-33 contains 16 protons (because it is sulfur), 17 neutrons (because of the isotope number 33), and 16 electrons (since atoms are electrically neutral).
the atom would positive
Neutrons are 'zero' charged. Protons are positively(+) charged. Electrons are negatively(-) charged. For any neutrally charged atom , the number of protons(+) equals the number of electrons(-); the charges balance. However, when an atom loses or gains electrons it becomes a charged species and is called an ION , not an atom. If the number of protons changes then it is a completely different element. Neutrons have no effect on the charge of an atom/ion, they only effect the atomic mass. Here are some examples. Hydrogen has one proton and one electrons ; charges balance. However the hydrogen ion has one proton and no electrons (H^+) Chlorine has two isotopes l different number of neutrons Chlorine - 35 , 17 protons , 18 neutrons and 17 electrons The Chloride(-35) ion has 17 protons , 18 neutrons and 18 electrons (35)Cl^-) , the chloride -35 ion Chlorine - 37, 17 protons , 20 neutrons and 17 electrons The Chloride(-37) ion has 17 protons , 20 neutrons, and 18 electrons (37)Cl^-) , the chloride - 37 ion. The Chloride(-37) ion has 17 protons, 20 neutrons and 18 electrons Notice , for the given element the number of protons remains the same, the different isotopes have different number of neutrons, and the ions have a different number of electrons.
Each atom of chlorine has 17 each of protons and electrons; as shown by the atomic number of chlorine.

Chlorine has: 17 Protons 17 Electrons (in a neutral atom i.e. not an ion) (Isotope Mass Number - 17) is the number of Neutrons.
35 (amu)
Chlorine atoms always have 17 protons. The number of neutrons equals the mass number of the isotope named minus the number of protons: in this instance, 35 - 17 or 18.
the atom would positive
there are 9 protons and there are 19 neutrons and 17 electrons. plz contact me on facebook.com/gennamerryman
