Question

How do you get protons for an element

Answer 1

Answer:

The proton number is found in the periodic table of elements.

Explanation:

The atomic number is the number that defines each element in the periodic table. It accounts on the number of protons in a nucleus of an element, as well as the number of electrons. It is marked by the letter Z.

It should be distinguished from the mass number which is the total number of protons and neutrons inside a nucleus.
