(i) Atomic Number will be 8 (ii) As electrons and protons are equal, the atom will be neutral
Comments

i) The atomic number is equal to the number of protons. Therefore, the atomic number of the atom is 8. (ii) Since the number of both electrons and protons is equal, therefore, the charge on the atom is 0.

Atom 8 and charge 8 multiply total charge on one electron.

The atomic number will be 8 because an atomic number is equal to the number of protons. And the atom is neutral as it has 8 electrons and 8 protons.

Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?
100 gm of sodium will have (Given mass / molar mass )x Avogadro's Number = (100/23) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 2.62 x 10^24 atoms 100 gms of Iron will have (100/56) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 1.07 x 10^24 atoms So 100 gms of Sodium will have more atoms.
