There are 16 protons in an atom of sulfur. All isotopes and ions of the same elements will have the same number of protons regardless of the difference in the number of neutrons or electrons. So the information about the atom being "neutral" is unnecessary.
Sulfur, which atomic number (in the PS) is 16, by definition equal to the number of protons in the nucleus
The nuclide symbol for the nucleus that contains 16 protons and 16 neutrons is oxygen-32, represented as ^{32}_{16}O.
Sulphur tom has 16 protons and its symbol is S.
Most elements have isotopes---atoms that have the same number of protons (and hence they are still that element) but different numbers of neutrons. For instance, sulfur found in nature has four stable isotopes: S-32 16 protons 16 neutrons S-33 16 protons 17 neutrons S-34 16 protons 18 neutrons S-36 16 protons 20 neutrons Each of these isotopes has a different mass, but all are sulfur because they have 16 protons.
34 - 16, the atomic number of sulfur [note correct spelling] or 18.

what element contains 16 protons? what element contains 10 protons?
Sulfur is composed of atomically bonded sulfur atoms. It is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. Its atomic structure consists of eight protons and eight neutrons in its nucleus, with electrons orbiting around the nucleus in energy levels.
The element in group 16 with more protons than sodium but fewer protons than argon is sulfur (S). Sodium has 11 protons, sulfur has 16 protons, and argon has 18 protons.
Sulphur tom has 16 protons and its symbol is S.
Sulfur or sulphur is the chemical element that has the atomic number 16. It is denoted with the symbol S Its atomocity is 8
It has 19. If you look at the periodic table of elements potassium (k)'s atomic number is 19. An atomic number Is how many protons is in it's nucleus. So the answer is 19
'S' look for it on the periodic table for full name.
The atomic number of sulfur is 16 The number of protons is the same as the atomic number. The S-2 gains 2 electrons so it changes from 16 to 18. The atomic mass is 32. The atomic mass number minus the number of protons will give you 16 which is the number of neutrons. :)
Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It has 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 16 electrons.
The ion S(2-) has 16 protons and 18 electrons.
