How many protons do all chlorine atoms have?

Answer 1

Every chlorine atom has 17 protons, 17 fundametal positively charged nuclear particles.

Elemental identity is defined by the number of protons, fundamental, massive, positively charged nuclear particles. The number of protons give #Z#, the atomic number, the which determines elemental identity: #1# for #H#; #2# for #He#;.......and #17# for #Cl#.

No, you don't need to memorize these numbers because you will naturally be given a Periodic Table of Elements for every Chemistry and Physics test you take. However, you still need to be able to use the Table, so get to work.
