Atomic number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In chemistry and physics, the atomic number (also known as the proton number ) is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom and therefore identical to the charge number of the nucleus....

In the modern periodic table, the elements are actually arranged in order of increasing atomic number--that's the number of protons in one atom of a particular element. An undisturbed atom is electrically neutral, so the number of electrons in it is the same as its atomic number.
