Answer:

You can find the mass number and the atomic number in the periodic table.

E.g. >>> Look at the periodic table, and find the oxygen (O):

the mass number: 15,9994u

the atomic number: 8

And find the magnesium (Mg):

the mass number: 24,3050u

the atomic number: 12

Step-by-step explanation:
