hey buddy !! here's your answer...
the atomic number shows the number of protons in nucleus. this is 6 in carbon , hence atomic number is 6.
the mass number is total mass of protons + total mass of neutrons in nucleus.
both are approximately 6 ...hence mass number is nearly 12
hope it helps !! ✌️❤️
