all of those are right but #2 is a weighted average of the masses of an element's isotopes.

1. Atomic Number - the number of protons settle in the nucleus of an atom and it is uniquely classifies a chemical element.

2. The sum of the protons and neutrons in - The atomic mass of an atom of a given element is approximately equal to the number of neutrons + number of protons in that atom. Example: is for Sodium The number of protons is 11 and the number of neutrons is 12. Add the two, you get the atomic mass of 23.

3. Most metals are brittle. It is wrong since most metals are malleable.

4. Most reactive non-metals. Atoms of these elements effortlessly form compounds by allocating or getting one electron when responding with atoms of the other elements.

5. amu. It is defined as exactly 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12
