Number protons is what determines the element.
16 protons determines that the substance is sulphur.

The number of neutrons can vary according to the isotope.  The mass number is the total count of neutrons and protons, so sulphur with a mass number of 34 has 34-16=18 neutrons.

32.065 is the weighted average of the atomic weights of different isotopes, so does not apply to a single isotope.

What is the penetrating power of beta
zlopas [31]
The penetrating power of alpha rays, beta rays, and gamma rays varies greatly. Alpha particles can be blocked by a few pieces of paper. Beta particles pass through paper but are stopped by aluminum foil. Gamma rays are the most difficult to stop and require concrete, lead, or other heavy shielding to block them.
