Hello there!

Atomic numbers tell you the number of protons and electrons.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

An atomic number of an element tells you the number of protons in every atom of that element. The number of protons is generally the same as the number of electrons too.

The mass number is the number of protons and neutrons combined.
