The atomic number will be 6. The atomic number is always the number of protons the atom contains, and vice versa. The element in question is in fact carbon.

∙ 12y agoThe atomic number is 6, because atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThe atomic number is 6 as it equals to the number of protons or electrons. The element is carbon and the specific isotope is 6C12.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoThe atomic number of an element is the number of PROTONS that atom has, so in this case, 6 :)
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoThis is about carbon. An atom contains similar number of neutrons and protons.

How many protons electrons and neutrons are in an atom with an atomic number of seventy nine and an atomic mass of one hundred ninety seven?
59 = # of protons and # of electons 59 protons make up 59 of the mass number (electons have an insignificant mass), so the rest of the mass must be from neutrons: 96 - 59 = 37 neutrons
Atomic number refers to what?
number of electons
Element with 16 neurons?
Phosphorous Atomic Number: 15 Atomic Weight: 31 15 Protons 16 Neutrons 15 Electrons
A sub atomic particle which determines the atomic number?
The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of that element.
The... Is equal to the number of protons in an atom?
Electrons or atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons as well as the principle quantum number.
How many electons does lead have?
The atomic number of lead is 82 and there are 82 protons and 82 electrons.
How do you determine the number of protons electrons and neutrons present in an element by identifying its atomic and mass numbers from the periodic table?
Atomic number means number of protons present in an atom. Atomic number= number of protons. mass number = number of neutrons+ number of protons. So if you subtract the number of protons you get neutrons and if you subtract neutrons you get protons. mass number - protons= neutrons Mass number - neutrons = protons.
How is the mass of electons measured?
Example: Helium: Atomic Number; 2. Atomic Mass; 4.00 The electrons are the amount of protons in the nucleus. To find the protons you subtract the atomic number by the atomic mass. If the atomic mass consists of multiple numbers, round it up to the nearest whole.

Which particles account for the difference between the atomic number and the mass number?
The answer is that it is neutrons that account for the difference between atomic weight and atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons or the number of electrons in the atom, since they are normally equal. The atomic weightis the sum of the total number of protons, electrons AND neutrons in the atom. Knowing both the atomic number and the atomic weight of an atom lets you know the number of neutrons in the atom (the isotope). Example: Uranium, Atomic Number 92, Atomic Weight 235. The atomic number tell you that the uranium atom has 92 protons and 92 electrons. The atomic weight tells you that it has a combined total of 235 protons, electrons and neutrons. Since you know from the atomic number that there is a total of 184 protons and electrons in the atom (92 + 92) and from the atomic weight that the total number of protons, electons and neutrons is 235 (92 + 92 + X = 235), you now know that there are 151 neutrons in that uranium atom. The atomic number and atomic weight together tell you that the uranium atom 235 has 92 protons, 92 electons and 151 neutrons.

How many protons does an atomic number of four have?
Four.
How do you calculate the protons from the atomic number?
The atomic number is the number of protons.
Atomic number is equal to?
no of the protons or the no of electron is equal to the atomic no denoted by the symbol Z
What's atomic mass and atomic number?
The Atomic Number is the number of protons. The Atomic Mass Number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons of a particular isotope.neutrons and protons
