If an atom has 9 protons, 10 electrons, 8 neutrons: what is the element name, the mass, the charge? Give me an ion of that atom.

Well, I have used a calculator for this...

So I dont have any explaination but I m sure that this will definitely help u!

So the name of the element is Fluorine

The total mass of your atom is 17.14029 u which we can round off and write as 17

& Charge is -1

atom is called fluorine, but the ion is called fluoride.

hope it helps!!!
