In atom, no of protons= no of electrons. Hence,

Atomic no = no of protons = no of electrons.

In a neutral atom, no.of protons=no.of electrons=atomic number.

But in shared element, no.of protons=atomic number.

According to me,

Atomic No = No.of protons or electrons in an atom.

I agree with, the atomic number is equal to the no.of protons.

I agree with @Sachin.

But it's customary to say that no of protons determine the atomic number of a element.

Sachin said:   1 decade ago
Since in an atom atomic number = no.of proton = no.of electron.

So atomic number will also be determine by no.of electron.

Atomic number is also known as no.of protons. Nucleons is equal to addition of protons& neutrons. (i.e), A=Z+N. Where, z is a proton number or atomic number.

The atomic number is equal to protons, I agree with it.

I AGREE
