The atomic number (Z) uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.

The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

In this video Kristine Born explains this two concepts in more detail.

What is formula mass of glucose C2H12O6
Delvig [45]
Glucose has empirical formula C6H12O6. So its formula mass can be calculated from that: 12.01x6 + 1.008x12 + 16.00x6 = 72.06 + 12.096 + 96.00 = 180.156 which needs to be rounded to two decimals to get 180.16 g/mole<span>.</span>

A sample of hydrogen gas is found to be 8.50 L at a temperature of 38.0 C and a pressure of 725mm Hg. Find the volume at STP.
Vsevolod [243]
Temp must be Kelvin
38 C = <span> <span> <span> 311.15 </span> </span> </span> K
Volume at STP = 8.50 liters * (273.15 / 311.15) * (725 / 760) =
<span> <span> <span> 7.1182746306 </span> </span> </span> Liters

The formula to use is:

Volume at STP = Present Volume * (273.15 / Present Temp °K) * (Present Pressure (Torr) / 760)
