Answer: Magnesium

Magnesium, in its elemental form, has 12 protons and 12 electrons. The neutrons are a different matter. Magesium's average atomic mass is 24.305 atomic mass units, but no magnesium atom has exactly this mass.

Hope this helps....... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!!!! :D
