Every element has its own unique atomic number. The atomic number tells how many protons are in 1 atom of that element. Since no 2 elements have the same same atomic number, no 2 elements have the same number of protons. Basically, the atomic # is the same as the # of protons. For example: Aluminum= ''Al'' has an atomic # of 13, so it has 13 protons.
