Atomic Number and Atomic Mass

Each element has an atomic number and an atomic mass.

Atomic mass
(the number of protons plus the number of neutrons) 16

Atomic number
(the number of protons, this is the same as the 8

number of electrons in a neutral atom)

This means that oxygen has an atomic mass of 16, and an atomic number of 8.
It has 8 protons, 8 neutrons and 8 electrons.
