Number of protons and electrons are equal in a neutral atom. And their number is equal to atomic number.
Hope you got your answer. Stay tuned with concept chemistry for more.
For example hydrogen has atomic number equal to one, so it contains one electron and one proton.
Similarly carbon atom has atomic number 6, so it has six protons inside the nucleus and six electrons around the nucleus.
