Proton A positively charged subatomic particle (found in the nucleus). A subatomic particle with no charge (found inside the nucleus). Neutron
Atomic Number The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element. (This is also the number of electrons) Element# of protonsAtomic # Carbon66 Phosphorus15 Gold79 Atomic number

Mass Number & Atomic Mass The number of protons (+) and electrons (-) in an atom are the same (as long as the atom is neutral). The number of protons and neutrons (0) is not always the same.
Isotopes Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have diff. masses because of diff. numbers of neutrons. IsotopeProtonsElectronsNeutronsNucleus Hydrogen–1 (protium) 110 Hydrogen-2 (deuterium) 111 Hydrogen-3 (tritium) 112
