- The total number of protons in the nucleus of an atom gives us the atomic number of that atom.
- It is represented with the letter ‘Z.’
- All the atoms of a particular element have the same number of protons, and hence the same atomic number.
- Atoms of different elements have different atomic numbers.
- For example, all carbon atoms have the atomic number of 6, whereas all atoms of Oxygen have 8 protons in their nucleus
