Einsteinium. No joke. Symbol is "Es". Named after Albert Einstein.
The superscript in platinum-95 (Pt-95) refers to the atomic number of the element, which is 78 (number of protons). The subscript represents the atomic mass of the isotope, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom.
The atomic number of the element americium (Am) is 95. From this we can tell that the nucleus of the atom is 95 protons. As an atom is electrically neutral (number of positively charged protons is equal to the number of negatively charged electrons and both carry a relative charge of magnitude 1), an americium atom would also have a total of 95 electrons in its electron shells. The mass number of Am is likely around 243, so you can estimate that an atom of Am would have 243 - 95 = 148 neutrons. Of course, if there are isotopes, the number of neutrons would vary for each isotope of americium.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element.
Atomic number = Number of protons
The atomic number of the element with the symbol Be (Beryllium) is 4.
Americium, with the chemical symbol Am, is the chemical element with the atomic number 95.
See the link bellow - chemical elements from atomic number 95 to atomic number 118.
Protons are located in the nucleus of an atom. For americium, a radioactive element with atomic number 95, the nucleus contains 95 protons.

The atomic number of americium (Am) is 95.
Am stands for Americium. It's a radioactive element. It is created in a laboratory and is not natural. It has an atomic weight of 243 and it's atomic number is 95. It has 95 protons, 95 electrons, and 148 neutrons.

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element.
That would be Americium (Am). No, I am not making this up. It is an element that cannot be found in nature due to its nuclear instability, and can only be created synthetically.
Argon is a gas element. atomic number of it is 18.
The atomic number of the element with the symbol Be (Beryllium) is 4.
