What is the relationship between mass number and atomic numbers?
Atomic number is the number of protons in the nuclei of the atoms of an element. Each element has a unique atomic number. Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nuclei of the atoms of a specific isotope of an element.
Can atoms of different elements have the same number of protons be from the same element?
No. Each type of atom (element) has its own unique number of protons, which is called the atomic number. Atoms of the same element will always have the same atomic number (number of protons). Atoms of different elements will never have the same atomic number (number of protons).
What is the atomic number also equal to?
The atomic number is equal to the protons and electrons of an element.
What does atoms of every isotope of calcium have the same?
