The atomic number tells you how many protons and electrons are in a specific element.
Atomic number tells us about protons. Number of protons that atom contains.
The periodic table can tell you the atomic number, atomic symbol, and atomic mass of each element listed. It also provides information on an element's properties, such as its reactivity and basic chemical behavior. Additionally, the periodic table organizes elements into groups and periods based on their similar chemical properties and electron configurations.
The atomic number of magnesium is 12. The atomic number tells you the number of protons in the nucleus of the magnesium atom, which also corresponds to the number of electrons in a neutral magnesium atom.
The number of protons.
The periodic table can be used to describe atomic structure by using the period to tell you how many shells (principle quantum number) there are in an element, and the group number can be used to tell you the number of valence electrons in the outermost shell.
To find the number of neutrons in an atom with an atomic number of 12 (which is the number of protons), you would subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass number. The atomic mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in the atom. For an atom with an atomic number of 12, the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting 12 from the atomic mass number given for that specific atom.
