Atomic number, being a characteristic property (property that is diff. for each element), it identifies the element, For instance, Oxygen has an atomic number of 8, and it's the only one that has that atomic number, same with any other element, except that no other element has an atomic # of 8. No two elements can share an atomic number.
The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons determines the identity of an element and its properties. Hope this helps :3

The atomic mass number tells us the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. It is used to determine the mass of an atom and is necessary for calculating the atomic weight of an element.
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the atomic number. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus and identifies the element.
An atom's atomic number gives us its number of protons. Carbon's atomic number is 6. Thus, it has 6 protons.
The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons determines the identity of an element and its properties. Hope this helps :3

it tells us that the number is equal to the number of protons plus the number of nuetrons in the nucleus of an atom
The atomic number tells you how many protons and electrons are in a specific element.Atomic number tells us about protons. Number of protons that atom contains.
An element's atomic number tells us the number of protons in an atom of that element. It is used to uniquely identify the element and determine its placement on the periodic table. The atomic number also corresponds to the number of electrons in a neutral atom of that element.
The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom. In the case of a neutral atom (as opposed to an ion), the atomic number is also equal to the total number of electrons.
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom tell you which element you are dealing with. It is the number of protons in an atomic nucleus that determines the elemental identity. Only that. The atomic number of an element is the number of protons you will find in the nucleus of every atom of that element, regardless of the number of neutrons or electrons involved.
The atomic number tells us the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. It determines the element's identity and its place on the periodic table. Elements with different atomic numbers have different chemical properties.
The atomic mass number tells us the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. It is used to determine the mass of an atom and is necessary for calculating the atomic weight of an element.
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines the atomic number. The atomic number corresponds to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus and identifies the element.

Atomic Number :- atomic number of an element is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom. (since atoms are electrically neutral the number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an atom) Atomic Mass :- atomic mass of an element is the number which tells us how many times an atom of that element is heavier than an atom of hydrogen (whose atomic weight is taken as unity [1])
