Identity, and the number of electrons determines the Electrical Charge of the
element.
3. The atomic number tells you the number of Protons in one atom of an element. It
also tells you the number of electrons in a neutral atom of that element. The atomic
number gives the “identity” of an element as well as its location on the periodic
table. No two different elements will have the same atomic number.
