    Atomic structure consists of particles that make up atoms. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have almost no mass, and neutrons have no charge. Atoms have no overall charge because the number of protons and electrons are equal. The proton number indicates the number of protons in an atom's nucleus. The nucleon number is the total number of protons and neutrons. Common elements like carbon, oxygen, magnesium, aluminum, and copper can be represented by their proton, electron, and neutron counts using chemical symbols and numbers. Isotopes of elements are represented by nuclide notation that includes proton and neutron numbers.
