The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determine its atomic number, while the number of neutrons and electrons can vary based on the specific isotope. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number from the Atomic Mass.
