The Periodic Table: Atomic Number

The video tutorial explains the periodic table, focusing on atomic numbers, protons, electrons, and neutrons. It describes how each element has a unique atomic number, which is the number of protons in its atoms. The tutorial also covers how to calculate the number of neutrons using atomic weight and provides examples with carbon and helium to illustrate these concepts.

What is the relationship between protons, electrons, and the atomic number in a neutral atom?

Using carbon as an example, describe how to calculate the number of neutrons in an atom.
