Each element has a specific number that doesn't change. That number is the atomic number they are given on the Periodic Table. For example Hydrogen has 1 electron, Helium has 2, Lithium has 3, and so on. The number of electrons in a atom would be determined by what ever element it is.
a
atoms in a group have the same number of valence electrons
Calcium has 20 electrons
Elements are made of one type of atom. Atoms are made of electrons, neutrons and protons
The atomic number on the periodic table determines the number of electrons in the atoms of the elements. Each element has a unique atomic number, which corresponds to the number of protons in the nucleus and thus the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus in a neutral atom.
Atoms that tend to gain electrons are located on the far left side of the periodic table.

They use a Periodic Table.
Atoms are neutral on the Periodic Table. Ions consist of more or less electrons than atoms.

he read about it in the newspaper
No. Atoms differ in number of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Just so you know, the periodic table does not give any indication of how many electrons an atom has but 95% of sulfur atoms are neutral and so contain 16 electrons.
we use the periodic table because it helps us with the atoms and electrons it tells us the mass number atomic number and the symbol
Calcium has 20 electrons

Elements in a row on the periodic table are called periods. They represent the number of electron shells an element's atoms have. Each period corresponds to the energy level of the electrons in an element's atoms.
