Concept explainers

Atomic Number

Elements are the building blocks of all the matter that exist in the universe. Every element is made up of atoms that have protons, electrons, and a nucleus. In order to know the difference between the elements, an atomic number is used. Every element has its own individual atomic number. The atomic number is a single most important characteristic of an atom.
