In some elements (and isotopes), the number is the same.

In most, however, the number is different.

If there was an atom of this element that has 18 neutrons would it still be the same element?

Yes. Atoms with a different number of neutrons are called isotopes of that atom, but a variation in the number of neutrons does not change what the atom is.


Is the number of electrons equal the number of neutrons in an atom?

What does the number of neutrons determine?

The number of neutrons in an atom determines the isotope of the element. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons. This affects the stability and nuclear properties of the atom.
