• Atomic number is the number of Protons in an atom
• All atoms of a particular element have the SAME number of protons (All Carbon atoms have 6 protons)• In a neutral atom,
The atomic number =The number of electrons

• Also called atomic weight or Mass Number• Sum weight of protons and neutrons in an atom

Calculating Neutrons:
• Mass number = protons + neutronsso…..
• Neutrons = mass number – protons
