I am not sure I understand this question.

In simplest terms, it can be said that almost all atoms consist of three smaller particles, protons, neutrons and electrons. Only one the lightest form of the hydrogen atom consists of a single proton and a single electron.

Protons and neutrons "cling" closely together to form the nucleus at the centre of the atom. The electrons orbit the nucleus.

The protons, neutrons and electrons of all elements are identical and interchangeable.

There are no "atoms in an element," but rather atoms OF an element. If you are trying to find the number of atoms in a sample of a pure element you divide its weight by its molar mass and then multiply by 6.022 x 10^23 to get the answer in atoms. The answer options are 2,3, or 4.
