Protons are always in the nucleus of an atom.
The number of protons indicates the element, its position in the Periodic Table.
Protons a deemed to have a charge of (+)
Protons are deemed to have a relative mass of '1' .
The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is the Atomic Mass. Collectively they are named as 'Nucleons'.

What two things are always equal within an atom?
The number of protons in the atom's nucleus and the total number of electrons in the electron shells of that atom.
Why must the number of protons always stay the same in an atom?
if the number of protons changed, the atom would become a different element
What is the atomic number of an atom with 16 protons?
16 The atomic number of an element is always the same as the number of protons in an atom of the element.
How many protons in a chlorine atom.?
The number of protons in an atom will always be the same as the atomic number, by which the periodic table is organized. So figuring out how many protons an atom has just becomes an exercise at reading the table. In this case, chlorine has an atomic number of 17.
The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atoms must always what?
#of electrons and # of protons is EQUAL in a neutral atom
In an atom the number of protons is always equal to the number of what?
No - in fact it is quite rare
Where in a atom are protons found?
Protons are found in the nucleus of atoms along with the neutrons of the atom. The nucleus is always in the centre of the atom.
In an atom the number of protons is always equal to the number of?
In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons.
What is the atomic number always equal to?
The number of protons in the nucleus of each atom that has the atomic number.
What two things are always equal within an atom?
The number of protons in the atom's nucleus and the total number of electrons in the electron shells of that atom.
Are Protons are always found in the nucleus of the atom?
No, protons can be found elsewhere when the atom is taken apart by some huge force.
Where are protons found in an atom that do not have any charge called?
All protons have positive charge and are always found in the nucleus of an atom. There are no protons without any charge.
Why must the number of protons always stay the same in an atom?
if the number of protons changed, the atom would become a different element
What is the atomic number of an atom with 16 protons?
16 The atomic number of an element is always the same as the number of protons in an atom of the element.
What does the atomic number always equal inside an atom?
Atomic number is always equal to the number of protons in an atom.
How many protons does a neutral atom phosphorous have?
Phosphorus always has 15 protons; that is the definition of the element.
What is determined the number of protons in an atom?
Check the atomic number, it will always be the same as the number of protons.
