Given an atomic number, atomic symbol, atomic mass of the first 20 elements

By Shivank Goel|Updated : August 10th, 2022

An atomic number of an atom is equal to the number of electrons in an electrically neutral atom or the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.

Atomic number = Number of electrons/Number of protons

Atomic symbols are the abbreviations that are used in Chemistry for the chemical elements. The element symbols for the chemical elements normally have one or two letters of the English alphabet and have the first letter capitalized.

Atomic mass is the mass of an atom. It shows how many times an atom of an element is heavier than 1/12th the mass of one atom of carbon-12 of the mass of one carbon atom. The unit used to measure it is AMU (atomic mass unit).
