An element will always have the same number of protons. The atomic number(Z) is the number of protons. For example, if you told that an element has 8 protons, all you have to do is look at the Periodic Table for the element that has atomic number 8. In this case it would be Oxygen, with symbol (O).
However, they might have different number of electrons and neutrons.
When they have an electric charge they are called ions. You can calculate the ion charge with this formula:
Ion charge = # of protons - # of electrons
When they have different number of neutrons they are called isotopes. You can calculate the mass number(A) with this formula:
Mass number(A): #of protons + # of neutrons
What else can I help you with?
Can you identify an atom without number of neutrons in it?
Every element has a specific number of protons, which is how an element is identified. That gives its atomic number. The number of neutrons can vary, and therefore is not useful in identifying an element.
Every what has its own kind of atom?
Every element has its own kind of atom, identifiable from atoms of another element by its number of protons.
What does atomic number represent?
It is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom and it determinnes many properties of the atom. The atomic number is also the number of electrons and is a constant for every element
Is sodium the only element with eleven protons?
Yes. Every element has a different number of protons.
Where is the atomic number located on the element on the periodic table?
Usually on the very top of every element.
As the number of the isotopes of an element increases the number of protons?
Atomic mass increases with the ordered placement of the element of the periodic table. Conveniently, the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons also increase with numbered order on the table. Every element is assigned a number. This number is equal to the number of protons, nuetrons and electrons. I believe it's the nuetrons that make up the mass of the element, but not sure!
Are the number of electrons different from every atom of every element?
Each element has a different number of electrons. All atoms of that element have the same number of electrons. The number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
The number of atoms in a mole of an element depends on what the element is. true or false?
True. The number of atoms in a mole of an element is determined by Avogadro's number, which is a constant (6.022 x 10^23) regardless of the element being considered. Each element's molar mass in grams is equal to one mole of that element's atoms.
What is the unique feature that every element has that no other element has?
The atomic number, or number of protons
A resource inventory usually remains constant and should be updated every five to ten years?
true
A resource inventory usually remains constant an should be updated about every five to ten years?
true
What is the atom that tells the number of protons in the nucleus of every atom of an element?
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in the nuclei of its atoms. Each element has a unique atomic number.
What two parts of a atom have the same number in each element?
For every element, the number of protons, electrons, and atomic number are the same.
A resource inventory usually remains constant and should be updated about every five to ten years true or false?
true
Why power does not remains same in series circuit?
In a series circuit, the current through each element is the same current. Because the total current must flow through every element. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each element is the same voltage. Because every element is connected individually across the power supply.
Can you identify an atom without number of neutrons in it?
Every element has a specific number of protons, which is how an element is identified. That gives its atomic number. The number of neutrons can vary, and therefore is not useful in identifying an element.

Every element has its own kind of atom, identifiable from atoms of another element by its number of protons.
