the number of protons

Atomic number is the equivalent of the number of protons in an atomic nucleus.
Weird concept, but: Atomic number of helium is 2, so its square root is √2. √2 is an irrational number so only an approximate decimal expansion can be made: √2 ≈ 1.4142
A mixed number is made up of a whole number and a fraction.
atomic mass of carbon=12 atomic number of carbon=6
They have not atomic numbers. Atomic number is made by number of protons an atom has.
M.GMosly found the atomic number. Atomic number is equals to protons.
the number of protons make up the atomic number
The Atomic Mass is made up of protons and neutrons (which is basically the nucleus.)
"number of protons in an atomic nucleus"
in the increasing order of atomic number
Atomic mass number of the atom. The best way to remember it is: the majority of the mass of an atom is made up of the protons and neutrons (the electrons are very light!), therefore the atomic mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons.
Elements are made of atoms. Each element is made up of the same kind of atoms, having the same atomic number.
The Atomic Mass is made up of protons and neutrons (which is basically the nucleus.)
protons is the same number as the atomic number always and protons plus the average number of neutrons makes up the atomic mass
The mass number is the average total of the number of protons and neutrons in the atomic nuclei of all the isotopes of that element on earth. Thus, the average number of neutrons in that element can be found by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number.
