The number of protons is equal to atomic number: neon 10 has protons.

The number of electrons that a nucleus has is equal to the elements' atomic number, found on the periodic table. In the instance of neon (Ne), its atomic number is 10; therefore, it has 10 protons.
Neon atoms have 10 protons, and a neutral atom has 10 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, but the most common natural isotope (90.5%) has 10 neutrons. Neon-21 (11 neutrons) is about 0.25% of natural neon, and neon-22 (12 neutrons) is about 9.25%
Neon has 10 electrons. It has an atomic number of 10, which corresponds to the number of protons (and therefore electrons) in a neutral atom of neon.
An atom of neon consists of 10 protons, 10 neutrons and 10 electrons (atomic number = 10; atomic mass = 20)

An atom containing 10 protons is an atom of neon, a noble gas with the atomic number of 10.
The number of electrons that a nucleus has is equal to the elements' atomic number, found on the periodic table. In the instance of neon (Ne), its atomic number is 10; therefore, it has 10 protons.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. The number of protons in an atom is what gives the atom its elemental identity. The number of neutrons can change resulting in different isotopes of the same element. The number of electrons can change, resulting in different valence states of the same element. If the number of protons changes, then an atom of neon is no longer neon. So the atomic number of neon is always 10, because neon always has 10 protons.
In an atom, 10 protons and 10 electrons. (# of protons = atomic number) =)
it shows how many protons are present in an atom
Neutrons = 10. Protons = 10. And electrons = 10.
10 (neon)
No. The atomic number ( number of atoms) for oxygen is 8. The atomic number for NE (neon) is 10. :)
The noble gas neon has ten protons and an equal number of electrons.
Neon atoms have 10 protons.
sodium has more protons and neutrons. electrons have practically no mass, valence electrons are just outer orbital electrons. sodium has 11 protons, 11 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Mass is 23. neon has 10 protons, 10 electrons, and 10 neutrons. Mass is just 20. The neon atom has 10 protons and 10 neutrons for a mass number of 20. The sodium atom has 11 protons and 12 neutrons for a mass number of 23. The number of valence electrons has no bearing on mass number or atomic weight.
