An oxygen atom can only have 8 protons. If you were to add any it would no longer be oxygen. But if you were to add 2 protons to it, it would become the element neon. When neon becomes ionized it glows a an orangy-red.
Protons are part of the nuclei of atoms. All matter has atoms therefore there are protons in batteries.
The up and down quark accounts for most of an atoms mass. Two up quarks and one down quark forms a proton, and one up quark and two down quarks forms a neutron. Protons and neutrons form the nuclei of atoms, and comprise most of their mass, along with the binding energy holding them all together.
All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons. The number of protons determines the element.
Nuclei of atoms contain protons (+) and neutrons. The electrons (-) circle the nucleus on orbitals, forming the electron cloud. In a balanced or neutral atom, there will be the same number of protons in the nucleus as there are electrons outside of the nucleus. The number of neutrons can vary within the same element; that's how you get isotopes (e.g. Carbon-13 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 7 neutrons...The 13 is the atomic mass representing the sum of the protons and neutrons)

Protons have to be subtracted not added.
All oxygen atoms contain 8 protons in their nuclei. All neutral oxygen atoms have 8 electrons. There are three isotopes of oxygen, containing 8,9, or 10 neutrons in their nuclei.

Oxygen atoms contain 8 protons in their nuclei, therefore oxygen is atomic number 8 on the periodic table.

The nuclei of heavier atoms simply have more neutrons and protons than do lighter atoms.
The all have protons.
The protons in their nuclei.
The atomic number of boron is 5, and since the atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms, boron atoms have 5 protons in their nuclei.
Protons are normally found in the nuclei of atoms.
Carbon is atomic number 6, so its atoms have 6 protons in their nuclei. Carbon-14 atoms have 8 neutrons in addition to the 6 protons. Nitrogen is atomic number 7, so its atoms have 7 protons in their nuclei. Nitrogen-14 atoms have 7 neutrons in addition to the 7 protons.
