What information does the atomic number of an element provide? A. the number of protons in one atom of the element B. the number of electrons in one atom of the element C.the number of neutrons in one atom of the element D. the total number of protons and neutrons in one atom of the element
The atomic number gives you the number of electrons and protons there are in an atom. ex: Carbon (C) has atomic number 6. So we know that it has 6 protons and 6 electrons
wich one is it then?
