Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of protons in an atom also places it on the periodic table- the 1st element on the periodic table is Hydrogen because it has 1 proton. If it had 2- it'd be Helium. Neon must have 10 protons to be #10 on the periodic table. (and to even be Neon)
