Protons (the number of ..) determine the 'kind' of element,
and the electrons in the outmost valency orbital determine the properties
(the number of electron; and 'octet' rule: "make it eight preferably').

The period number helps in determining the number of shells in the element. For example, Sodium (Na) is in 3rd period that means there are 3 shells in the atom of an Sodium.
What does the atomic number of an element measure?
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. In an electrostatically neutral atom, ie not an ion, it is also the number of electrons. Every single atom of an element will have the same number of protons, eg. Carbon always has six protons. This also helps us to understand the layout of the electron in an atom. Carbon has six so it arranges them into an inner group of two and an outer group of four, meaning it can have up to four bonds. Hope this helps.
