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.

2NO(g) N2(g) + O2(g); Keq = 2.1 × 1030 What does the value of the equilibrium constant indicate?
olga_2 [115]
The equilibrium constant is a value which represents the equilibrium of a reaction. It is a reaction quotient when the reaction reached equilibrium. If Keq is greater than 1, the mixture contains mostly the products. On the other hand, if Keq is less than 1, the mixture contains the reactants. For this case, the mixture contains mostly products.
