It is the number equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
the number of electron or proton present in anyatom is called "atomic number/Charge number" of that atom it is denoted by Z.
For Example.
atomic number of Na is 11. Atomic number of Ca is20

Firstly, an atom is uncharged by definition. If it is charged, that is it has gained or lost electrons, its name is changed to an ion. The atomic number is the number of protons of an atom of that element. And the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
Fluorine has 9 protons per atom: The number of protons per atom is by definition the atomic number of an element, and reference to a periodic table shows that the atomic number of fluorine is 9.
AMU stands for atomic mass units; the number of units an element has is called its atomic mass. The atomic mass of carbon is exactly 12, by definition.
this elemnt has an atomic number that is double the atomic number of silicon?
The element with an atomic number that is double the atomic number of silicon is germanium, with an atomic number of 32. Silicon has an atomic number of 14.
The atomic number for any isotope of fluorine is always 9; that is the "definition" of fluorine.
Atomicity is having atoms. Also the number of atoms in a molecule.
The number of protons in an atom of any atomic number is the same as the atomic number, because that is the definition of atomic number. Therefore, in the given question, the answer is 34; the mass number is not needed to answer.
This is the definition of an "isotope".
Identically the same, by definition.
By definition, the number of protons in the atoms of an element is the atomic number of the element.
The elements with the highest atomic numbers have the greatest numbers of protons in their nucleus, because that is the definition of atomic number.
Transmutation by definition means the conversion of one element into another, and so it follows that its atomic number must also change. Every element has a unique atomic number.
The atomic number is the number of protons, so 15.
Fluorine has 9 protons per atom: The number of protons per atom is by definition the atomic number of an element, and reference to a Periodic Table shows that the atomic number of fluorine is 9.
Firstly, an atom is uncharged by definition. If it is charged, that is it has gained or lost electrons, its name is changed to an ion. The atomic number is the number of protons of an atom of that element. And the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the chemical properties of an element and its place in the periodic table.
