theres 118 protons.

During experiments conducted in Dubna's U400 cyclotron between February and June 2005, element 118 was created by fusing an atom of calcium-48 with an atom of californium-249. Accelerated to nearly 30,000 kilometers per second (or 10 percent the speed of light), the calcium bombarded a spinning target of californium. The californium, which has 98 protons, fused with the calcium, which has 20 protons, creating the new element with 118 protons. The beam of calcium ions has to hit the target with enough force to fuse with the californium but not transfer enough energy during the process to break apart the nucleus, or fission.

The element with the most protons can change at any time so I can't give you a per fect answer but as I am aware of as of 2/19/2009 the unofficial element with the most electrons is ununoctium (Uuo) and the highest official is Roentgenium (Rg) at 111. P.S. there's this guy named Michael Dayah and he update this periodic table contsantly you should check it out if this gets out dated!!!!
