What used to identify an atom?

Atoms are normally identified according to the element of which that atom is an example. And that, in turn, is determined by the number of protons in the atom's nucleus. So, any atom that has just one proton is a hydrogen atom. If it has two protons it is a helium atom. And so forth.
