None of the elements of the Periodic Table have the same number of protons. All elements have their own unique atomic (proton) number which defines how many protons that element has in its atoms. Just a note that the atomic number is also called the proton number. To know which number is which the atomic number is always smaller. The Atomic number gives both the proton and electrion number as these most be the same due to the charges for it to be an atom.

What is a pure substance all the atoms have the same atomic number or number of protons?

A pure substance is a material made of only one type of particle, such as atoms or molecules, and all the atoms in a pure substance have the same atomic number or number of protons. This means that all the atoms in a pure substance are of the same element.


What does the atomic number tells you about the element?

It tells you (1) how many protons are in the element, and (2) what the element is since all atoms of an element will have the same number of protons.It's D. The number of protons in its atoms.It tells how many protons/electrons that element has.


What causes atoms of the same elements to have different atomic masses?

Elements have a certain number of protons(+), neutrons(0) and electrons(-). The atomic number shows the number of protons and electrons in the element (has to have the same number of each to stay stable). The atomic mass shows the number of neutrons. For example, Hydrogen has an atomic mass of ~1.01 (and an atomic number of 1). That means that it has 1 electron and 1 proton but no neutron (1 proton+0 neutrons=1). Helium has an atomic mass of ~4.00 (and an atomic number of 2). That means that it has 2 electrons, 2 protons and 2 neutrons (2 protons+2 neutrons=4). Hope you can understand. :S


Can 2 isotopes of the same element differ in the number of protons?

An element is defined by the number of protons, so this cannot vary. Isotopes of a particular element are different in the number of neutrons within the atoms. These isotopes are said to be comparatively "lighter" or "heavier" than other isotopes based on the total of protons and neutrons (atomic mass).


How many protons do atoms have?

It depends on the type of element you are working with. Plus, use the Periodic Table in order to find the atomic number which is the number of protons. So, for example, Hydrogen has 1 proton; Helium has 2 protons; Lithium has 3 protons; Beryllium has 4 protons and so on. this depends on the atom Element. For example.Oxygen has an atomic number: 8This means, Oxygen has 8 protons and also 8 electrons.The number of protons = the number of electrons.

If you have 2 atoms have the same number of protons but differernt number what will they have the same?

They will have the same atomic number.


If you have 2 atoms have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons what will they will have the same?

No, they will not be considered isotopes since isotopes are atoms of same element (therefore, have same number of protons). However, the types of atoms which have same atomic mass number but different no. of protons, they are called isobars. Eg:- Calcium and Argon = =


How are 2 isotopes of an element similar?

Their atoms have the same number of protons and electrons and therefore have the same chemical properties. However, the atoms do differ in the number of neutrons and so their physical properties are slightly different.


Why does helium not have a charge?

all atoms generally do not have charge as the number of protons and number of electrons will be the same.


Why can 2 atoms of the same element have different numbers of neutrons but must always have the same number of protons?

They are called Isotopes


What are the two atoms that have th same number of proton called?

they are the same element because an element has an atomic number through its number of protons so if there was an element with 2 protons it would be number 2 in the periodic table which is helium, if another element has 2 protons it should be helium still, if it wasn't modified in anyway


What is thenumber of protons in oxygen?

it has 4 protons and 15 electrons!!!Ans 2.Oxygen has 8 protons.p.s. like all atoms, it has the same number of electrons as protons : 8.

How atoms of the same element can be different?

An element by definition refers to all atoms with the same number of protons; so any atom with 1 proton is the same element as all other atoms with one proton; which would be helium. And then, all atoms with 2 protons would be the same element; hydrogen. But the atoms that have 1 proton and the atoms that have 2 protons cannot be the same element.An ion is an element with a different amount of electrons, where if it is a positive ion it is missing an election compared to a "normal" element and if it is a negative ion it would have an extra election compared to a "normal" element.An isotope is a member of the same element but it has a different number of neutrons.

What number is 27?

27, the reason being, that Cobalt has 27 Protons. All atoms are sorted by the number of protons that they have, such as Helium which has 2 protons, thus having an atomic number of 2.
