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.
The number of protons determines the number of electrons. This, in turn, determines the chemical properties of the atom. Protons contribute to the mass of an atom and provide positive charge to the atom. The number of protons also determines the identity of the element. Electrons have a negative charge. Since the atom has no charge, the number of electrons must equal the number of protons. The electrons arrange themselves in energy levels around the nucleus.
