To find the amount of protons in an atom, you simply look at the atomic number. For example, if the question was, "how many protons are in an atom of carbon", you look at the Periodic Table and see that carbon is the atomic number six, therefore your answer would be six.

Number of prtons in an atom?
The number of protons in an atom is the same as the atomic number of the element of which the atom is an example.
How many prtons are presnt in an atom potassium -39?
A potassium-39 atom has 19 protons since the atomic number of potassium is 19.
How many electrons and prtons are in Helium?
Helium is a non metal element. There are 2 electrons in a single atom.
How many prtons are in phosphorus?
Phosphorus has 15 protons.
What is the difference the atomic number of 6 of an atom and it's mass number?
If the atomic number of an atom is 6 it means that the atom has 6 protons, the mass number on the other hand is the total amount of protons and neutrons in the atom. ( Remember- the amount of protons equals the amount of electrons). So for example if you wanted to find out the amount of neutrons in an atom, you would subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass for the answer. (Whole-protons=neutrons)
The amount of protons in an atom is the atomic?
The amount of protons in an atom is its atomic number
What is the smallest amount in an element?
The smallest quantity of an element is an atom.
How to find the amount of valence electrons in an atom?
To find the amount of valence electrons in an atom, look at the group number on the periodic table. The group number tells you how many valence electrons an atom has. For example, elements in group 1 have 1 valence electron, elements in group 2 have 2 valence electrons, and so on.
What is the total amount of protons and neutrons in an atom?
The total amount of protons and neutrons in an atom is its mass number.
What do protons equal on the periodic table?
In an atom of an element, the amount of protons in that atom equal the amount of electrons in the atom, but only if it is a neutral atom. That then eqals the atomic number of that element.
Where in an atom do you find a proton?
You can find a proton (+) in the center of a atom.
Where do you find a neutron in a atom?
you can find the neutron in the center of an atom.
