The number of protons is the "atomic number", so you look that up in the Periodic Table.
What else can I help you with?
How do you determine how many protons are in an element?
The number of protons in an element is determined by its atomic number, which is the whole number found on the periodic table for each element. Each element has a unique number of protons that gives it its specific identity.
Determine the number of protons?
The number of protons is equal to atomic number and the number of electrons (for a neutral atom).
Why doesnt the number of protons change for a single element while the neutrons and electrons can?
The number of protons in an atom determines its identity as a specific element. Changing the number of protons would change the element. Neutrons and electrons can be added or removed without changing the identity of the element since they do not affect the element's chemical properties.
The number of present will determine the atomic number of an element?
The atomic number is determined by the number of protonsin the nucleus of the atom.The atomic number is conventionally written to the lower left of the chemical symbol for the element, e.g. for oxygen and for copper:8O 29Cu
How can you determine the number of electrons in an element?
To determine the number of electrons in an element, you can look at the atomic number of the element on the periodic table. The atomic number represents the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom.
What do protons determine about an element?
The protons of an element determine the atomic number, also known as the proton number. Do not confuse this with mass number which is the number of protons and neutrons.
What do the protons do?
The number of protons determine the atomic number of an element. There are the same amount of protons as electrons in a regular element.
Is the element determine by the number of protons?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons.
What do the protons determinate?
The number of protons determine the atomic number of an element. There are the same amount of protons as electrons in a regular element.
What has the mass number of 41?
The mass number of an element is the total number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. Given that the atomic number (number of protons) uniquely identifies an element, knowing just the mass number of 41 is insufficient to determine the specific element without additional information.
Which particle determines the atomic number of an element?
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons.
What is the identity of an element determine by?
The identity of an element is determined by the number of protons.
What do the protons of the nucleus of an atom determine?
Number of protons or the atomic number of an atom determines what is the element.
Why must you know both how many protons and how many neutrons an element has in order to fully identify it?
The number of protons determine what element it is, the number of neutrons determine what isotope it is.
What can you infer by just knowing the atomic mass of an element?
The number of protons.
How many protons does have calcium?
Calcium has 20 Protons. You can determine the amount of Protons in an Element by checking the top number of an element. This is called the Atomic number. Calcium has 20 protons
Can the mass number of an element be used to determine the number of electrons in an atom?
No, the mass number of an element represents the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, but it does not provide information about the number of electrons. The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.
