    Elements are classified according to the number of protons they contain.

    carbon has 6 protons and 6 electrons and 6 neutrons.

    copper has 29 electrons, 29 electrons and 34 neutrons.

    an element is a " kind " of atom. There are over hundreds of them.

    anyways they are are elements because they are all made up of the same type of atoms!

    goodluck!
