An atom of an element has the same number of protons as the element's atomic number. This is what defines the element's identity and determines its placement on the Periodic Table.
The number of electrons in an atom of an element is the same as the element's atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which also equals the number of electrons in a neutral atom.
