Brass isn't an element: it doesn't have an atomic number. It's an alloy made from Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn), atomic numbers 29 and 30, respectively.

What is the odd one out mercury gold brass nitrogen?

Brass as it is an alloy where as all the other three are basic elements. So brass will not be available in the periodic table. No atomic number for brass. But mercury has 80, gold has 79 and Nitrogen has 7 as atomic number.


How do you get the atomic weight of brass?

Brass does not have an atomic weight as it is an alloy. An alloy consisting of Copper (Atomic Weight: 63.546) & Zinc (Atomic Weight:65.38). This is why there is no Atomic Weight available for it. Once in a while a comparison of metals requires commonality. Such as if you were comparing the mass of a Brass item to say one of Lead (Atomic Weight:207.2). Mixtures of Brass vary from 5% Zinc to 45%. As you can easily see the weight of both Copper and Zinc are close in weight, and both are about 1/3 of the Lead. This would mean that if you were making a weight for say "skin diving" if you used lead instead of Brass the lead would be 1/3 the size and identical weight.I hope this had helped you.

Is brass an compound?

Brass is not a compound, because its atomic composition can vary from one sample to another. Instead brass is a mixture, of the special type called an alloy, because it is a mixture primarily of metals.
