ATOMIC DETAILS. “The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element. By definition, atoms have no overall electrical charge. That means that there must be a balance between the positively charged protons and the negatively charged electrons. Atoms must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. Number of Protons = Atomic Number. Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number. Number of Neutrons = Mass Number – Atomic Number.”
