A=mass number   (protons + neutrons)
Z=atomic number  (protons)
N=number of neutrons.

A=Z+N

Data:
A=24
N=13

Therefore:
24=Z+13
Z=24-13=11

Answer: The atomic number of this atom is 11. (The element is sodium)

ratelena [41]
Since there is no weight, I would assume that this is a 100g of pure compound.
Okay so I would be changing the percentage to gram to solve for the mole.
So
40.0g C (1 mol C/12.01 g C) = 3.33 mol C
6.73g H (1 mol H/1.01 g H ) = 6.66 mol H
53.3g O (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 3.33 mol O

With that, two of our moles is 3.33, so we consider that are our 1, as it is also the lowest. Therefore the empirical formula is CH2O

What happens to the atomic mass of an element moving from left to right within a period​
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

As you move across a period, the atomic mass increases because the atomic number also increases. ... The atomic mass for any given atom mainly comes from the mass of the protons and neutrons.

Generally speaking, elements with high electronegativities are 1. nonmetals. 2. likely to form anions (except the noble gases).
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

1. Nonmetals.  

2. Likely to form anions (except the noble gases).  

3. All of these  

4. Easily reduced (except the noble gases).

Explanation:

Elements with high electronegativities are found towards the upper right corner of the Periodic Table. Thus, they have all the above properties.

When the substance dissolves the solution is not transparent true or false <br>​
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

Some substances dissolve when you mix them with water. When a substance dissolves, it might look like it has disappeared, but in fact it has just mixed with the water to make a transparent (see-through) liquid called a solution.
