The mass number is protons and neutrons. So I think it’s false

The answer to number 5 would be FALSE.
It is the ATOMIC number that tells the amount of proton in the nucleus of an element.


Also, I wasn't sure if you wanted help with the other questions so I took the liberty of answering them anyway.
