Really? Just check the atomic number, which is right there on the chart. Can't miss it.
Count the protons? Just look for the atomic number of the element!
So easy! The number of protons is exactly the same as the atomic number. If oxygen is #8 on the table, it has 8 protons.
Find the element on the periodic table and the atomic number tells you the number of protons. That's chemistry 101!
