13 protons an easy way to remember what number of protons an element has is APES. A-atomic number, P-protons, E-electrons, S-same, so the atomic number and the numbers of protons and electrons are the same number
Finding the number of electrons in an atom is easy. You just have to know the atomic number of the element. The atomic number for Potassium is 19. That means Potassium has 19 electrons.
The atomic number, or Z, is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of an element. This is what determines what element an atom is. A link can be found below.
It is the number of protons alone that determines elemental identity. Period. Different atoms of the sameelement can have different numbers of isotopes, called isotopes, but the nature of the element itself - its chemical identity - is determined by the number of protons in the nucleus. Only that.
You would have a different element. This is not something that is easy to do in practice. It's nuclear physics, not something that happens in the test tube.
Finding the electron of an element is easy. In if find through atoms which positively charged protons and the negatively charged electrons.
The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in that atom. An easy way to view that is with the Bohr Model.
that sounds easy but could you be more specific, which element.
The number of electrons in the outermost energy shell is usually used in finding the valency of a given element. For instance elements that have two electrons in the outermost energy shell have valency 2.

This has to do with the number of electrons in the outer shell of the element. Simply put, each element has a certain number of electrons, equal to their atomic number on the periodic table. These electrons are found in "shells," and ideally, the outer shell has 8 electrons in it. If it does not, the element will bond with another element, giving or receiving electrons so that the element has a completed outer shell (8 electrons). The halogens all have an outer shell of 7 electrons. They are only one short of a completed outer shell, and therefore it is very easy and desirable for them to pick up an electron from another element, forming a compound and giving them a full, stable outer shell. For example, in the case of sodium chloride (NaCl), sodium has only 1 electron in its outer shell (called a valence electron), while chlorine has 7. It is very easy for sodium to lose that one electron to chlorine, completing chlorine's outer shell and creating a very stable compound. Because halogens so readily attract electrons to form compounds and are so much more stable as compounds than as elements, they are very rarely found not in compound form.
That's an easy question^.^..Katon means "fire element like "Suiton" water element "Futton" wind element etc.

to find the electron dot configuration of an element simply draw dots, symbolizing valance electrons, in a way that they are farthest from each other around the symbol of the element you are using.
