The classic Periodic Table organizes the chemical elements according to the number of protons that each has in its atomic nucleus. ... Elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass. The different rows of elements are called periods.

Answer:

Atomic number represents the number of proton in periodic table

Step-by-step explanation:

All the elements in a periodic table are arranged on the basis of their size while moving from left to right.

The larger the size, the higher is the atomic number. Atomic number is equal to the total number of protons present inside the nucleus of atom of an element.

Thus, indirectly atomic number represents the total number of protons.

Hence, atomic number represents the number of proton in periodic table
