Interesting question! Let us proceed slowly. Scandium has 21 protons per atom and 6.022 X 10^23 atoms per mole. 21 X 6.022 X 10^23 = 1.26 X 10^25 protons per mole of Scandium.
7.9027 grams Scandium (1mol/44.96g ) = 0.176 mol Scandium
0.176 mole Scandium X 1.26 X 10^25 protons Scandium
= 2.22 X 10^24 total protons in 7.9027 grams of Scandium.
( you can put this all into one conversion string if you like )
