What do the protons of the nucleus of an atom determine?
Number of protons or the atomic number of an atom determines what is the element.
How are the number of protons an important aspect of the atom?
the number of protons determine what the substance is. if the number of protons in an atom change, the substance made of that atom changes too.
What do protons determine about an element?
The protons of an element determine the atomic number, also known as the proton number. Do not confuse this with mass number which is the number of protons and neutrons.
What determine the atomic number of atom?
The number of protons
What part of the nucleaus can change and not change the identity of the element?
The number of protons in the nucleus affects the elemental identity of an atom, whereas the number of neutrons does not affect which element an atom belongs to.
What determine the charge of an atom?
It depends on the number of electrons and protons the charge of an atom depends on the number of electrons and the number of protons
Can the mass number be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom?
No, the mass number (number of protons and neutrons) cannot be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom. The number of electrons in an atom is determined by the number of protons in the nucleus, which is the atomic number. Electrons are equal in number to protons in a neutral atom.
What does the mass number determine?
The Number Of Protons & Neutrons In An Atom.
Is the atomic number determine by the number protons in an atom?
yes...
What number is used to determine how many electrons are in a neutral atom?
The number used to determine how many electrons are in a neutral atom is the atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons, thus balancing out the positive charge of the protons with the negative charge of the electrons.

How do you determine an atom's mass number?
mass number= no. of protons + no. of neutron
