This question appears incomplete, however
The number of protons of an element/atom (atomic number) can be determined by checking for the position of the element on the periodic table. This is because elements are arranged according to there atomic number on the periodic table.
The number of electrons of any element (of a neutral atom) is equal to the number of protons of the same element.
The number of neutrons of an element/atom is determined by subtracting the atomic number of the element from it's mass number. Hence, mass number is the addition of the atomic number and the number of neutrons.
Ions are charged particles that have the same number of protons and neutrons as there parent atoms. Hence, they have different number of electrons when compared to there specific parent/neutral atom.
A negatively charged atom has more electrons than it's original atom. For example, fluoride ion (F⁻) has 10 electrons while fluorine atom has 9 electrons (meaning fluoride ion has one more electron than it's parent fluorine). The increase is dependent on the number "attached" to the charge. A positively charged atom has less electrons than it's original atom. For example, calcium ion (Ca²⁺) has 18 electrons while calcium atom has 20 electrons (meaning the calcium ion has 2 electrons less than it's parent calcium atom). As said earlier, the decrease here is also dependent on the number "attached" to the charge.
The rule used for the determination of the protons, electrons, and neutrons has been the equal number of protons and electrons, while the number of the neutrons has been the difference in the atomic mass and the protons.
The atom has been the smallest particle that has comprised of electrons, protons, and neutrons as the subatomic particle. The neutrons and protons in the atoms have consisted within the nucleus. The electrons in the atom are revolving around the nucleus.
The atoms have been consisted of an equal number of protons and electrons, while the number of neutrons has been the difference in the atomic mass and the protons.
The ions have been formed with the loss or gain of the electrons by the atom in the terms of valence electrons to complete its octet.
