Q. Atomic Number is denoted by which alphabet?
Answer: Z
Notes: The atomic number is denoted by symbol Z. The symbol Z comes from the German word Zahl meaning number, which, prior to the modern synthesis of ideas from chemistry and physics, merely denoted an element's numerical place in the periodic table. The sum of the atomic number Z and the number of neutrons, N, gives the mass number A of an atom.
