As a chemistry teacher, I've taught students this trick: the atomic number (above the element symbol) always matches the number of electrons in a neutral atom. Works every time!
Simple stuff! The number of electrons equals the atomic number of the element. Just look at the top of the element's box.
Atoms are usually neutral, so just use the atomic number. Easy peasy.
