For the hydrogen atom, the energy levels only depend on the principal quantum number n. The energy levels are degenerate, meaning that the electron in the hydrogen atom can be in different states, with different wave functions, labeled by different quantum numbers, and still have the same energy.
ATOMIC NUMBER AND MASS NUMBERS. After reading this section you will be able to do the following: Define and determine the atomic number of an atom. Define and determine the mass number of an atom. What is an atom's atomic number? The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom determines an element's atomic number. In other words, each element has a unique number that identifies how many protons are in one atom of that element. For example, all hydrogen atoms, and only hydrogen atoms, contain one proton and have an atomic number of 1. All carbon atoms, and only carbon atoms, contain six protons and have an atomic number of 6. Oxygen atoms contain 8 protons and have an atomic number of 8. The atomic number of an element never changes, meaning that the number of protons in the nucleus of every atom in an element is always the same.
