Is a mixture of elements a compound?
No, unless all the elements involved in the mixture are present in fixed atomic proportions to one another that are ratios of integers, thereby showing that the elements are chemically bonded.
What is the atomic number of glucose?
Atomic number is a property of an atom (An Element) and not a chemical compound. Sodium chloride is a compound and thus it can not have any atomic number. Atomic number is the number of protons present in the nucleus of the atom of an element. e.g. Carbon has six protons in its nucleus, therefore its atomic number is six. However, sodium chloride has two different elements as its constituents and therefore one can not determine its atomic number.
Why is water called pure substance?
water contains two elements(H and O),but still it is called a pure substance because: 1) H and O are present in it by a fixed ratio 1:8, by atomic number 2) H and O are present in it by a fixed ratio 2:16 by atomic mass. Simply it is a compound and any compound is a pure substance.
How do you count the number of elements in a compound?
the atomis mass and the atomic number is all you need

It is a compound. Only atoms have atomic number. Elements have their own atomic number.
What is calcite atomic number?
Calcite is a compound. Atomic number is appropriate only for elements, not compounds.
Is chlorine an elements or compound?
Chlorine is an element. Its atomic number is 17 on the periodic table of the elements.
What is the atomic number for H2O?
Only elements have atomic numbers. Water is a compound, therefore it has no atomic number.
How are chemicals related to atomic mass?
The molar mass of a compound is the sum of atomic weights of the contained elements in the molecule.The expression atomic weight is correct for elements; for isotopes is correct atomic mass.
