Answer: Atomic mass is associated with the number of neutrons and protons that are present in a particular nucleus of an element. Atomic number is usually the number of protons present in an element's nucleus. It is the average weight of an element. It is the total number of nucleons in the atom's nucleus.
Assuming there were errors in atomic masses, Mendeleev placed certain elements not in order of increasing atomic mass so that they could fit into the proper groups (similar elements have similar properties) of his periodic table.

Answer:
Valence electrons or outer electrons are most important as they participate in bonding. The octet rule states that atoms gain, lose, or share valence electrons to have filled energy levels.. this gives atoms a stable configuration like that of the nearest noble gas.
Chromium (Cr) is round in d block
The elements on the periodic table are listed in increasing atomic number.
Hydrogen is the first element, and has an A.N. of 1. Also, its very interesting how it doesn't need 8 valence electrons to be stable.
The second element is Helium, which has an A.N (atomic number) of two.
