The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of?
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons within it's nucleus.
What determines the atomic number of a substance?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, while the atomic mass is the total mass of the nucleus (both protons and neutrons)
What is the atomic number determined by?
The number of protons the specific element has. Example, Hydrogen has 1, Helium has 2, Lithium has 3...etc etc etc Not to be confused with atomic mass.
Are the number of electrons different from every atom of every element?
Each element has a different number of electrons. All atoms of that element have the same number of electrons. The number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
What do whole numbers on the periodic table represent?
The whole number, the one at the top, above the element's symbol in the element box, is the atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons per atom in that particular element. The bottom number, that is always a decimal, is the atomic mass.
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of?

The atomic weight of an element is determined by what?
The atomic number of an element is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus.
Is the atomic number of an element determined by its number?
Protons. This determines what material the element is.
Why is the period of an element determined by an electron configuration?
The period of an element is determined by electronic configuration.Period is same as the number of energy levels of the element.
