OpenStudy (abmon98):

atomic number of a chemical element (also known as its proton number)

OpenStudy (abbyrose0105):

I don't get it...

OpenStudy (abmon98):

Atomic number is the proton number and isotopes are two atoms that share the same number of protons but have different number of neutrons. Mass Number=(protons+neutrons)

OpenStudy (abbyrose0105):

Ok so my answer was correct?

OpenStudy (abmon98):

no B and C
