The number of protons.
Yes. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nuclei of an element's atoms, which is unique to each element and determines the element's identity.
The number of protons.
The number of protons, which is the atomic number of an element, determines the identity of an element.
The atomic number is determined by the number of protonsin the nucleus of the atom.The atomic number is conventionally written to the lower left of the chemical symbol for the element, e.g. for oxygen and for copper:8O 29Cu
Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. All of the atoms of the same element have the same number of protons, and therefore the same atomic number. For example, all hydrogen atoms have one proton in their nuclei, and hydrogen's atomic number is 1; and all carbon atoms have six protons in their nuclei, and carbon's atomic number is 6. Each element's identity is determined by its atomic number. The relationship between the periodic table and atomic number is that the elements are arranged in the periodic table according to increasing atomic number, starting with hydrogen and ending with Ununoctium, which has an atomic number of 118.

The number of protons.
The number of protons, which is the atomic number of an element, determines the identity of an element.
If by its identity you mean its atomic number, no. Neutrons only count towards the Atomic Mass Number, or AMU.
The number of Protons/atomic number
The number of protons in an atom is its atomic number and it is the basic identity of the atoms of an element.
Atomic number is the number of protons in the nuclei of the atoms of an element. It is the number of protons that determines the atomic number. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons. So in a way you could say that atomic number determines the number of electrons in a neutral atom.
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 identity of an element is determined by the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms. This is the atomic number of an element.
atoms try to get 10 electrons on shells around the atom. how many shells the atom has is based on the atomic number and atomic mass the atomic number determines how many shells their are.
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, while the atomic mass is the total mass of the nucleus (both protons and neutrons)
the properties of elements are determined by the structures of their atoms.
