What equals the number of protons in an atom?

Scientists have designated electrons as having a negative charge and protons as having a positive charge. One positive proton can hold one negative electron in orbit. Thus, an atom with one proton in its nucleus normally will have one electron in orbit (and be labeled a hydrogen atom); an atom with ninety-four protons in its nucleus will normally have ninety-four electrons orbiting it (and be labeled a plutonium atom).

Are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons but have different number of neutrons?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element, having the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.


How can you find number of electrons in an atom?
