I think you mean what does the atomic number of an element on the Periodic Table means ? If yes then read on
An element is defined by its atomic number which is the number of protons it has . Protons are subatomic particles that exist inside an atoms nucleus and are stuck there by the strong nuclear force .
Two elements can never have the same atomic number , or else they'd be the same element!
I hope that answers your question :)

How can you find an element?
I'm assuming you mean "how can you find an element on the periodic table?" The periodic table is strategically placed. You can either look for the atomic number (the number at the top-- the number of the protons in one atom), or you can just look for the Element Symbol. The periodic table from left to right is sorted by increasing atomic number. The periodic table from top to bottom is sorted by increasing number of energy levels (the levels in which the electrons are in).
