The atomic number of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of the atom of that element.Ok so I'll take you through some interesting facts and data about Xenon (That most people don't know).
Xenon Overview
Atomic Symbol
Xe (Xenon)
Description
Heavy, colorless, odorless, noble gas.
State at 20 °C
gas
Sources
Obtain from the small quantities in liquid air.
