Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer to this question is the first option or "fluorine." You can find the amount of protons, neutrons, and electrons by looking at the elements atomic number and mass number. In this case we have the first option fluorine which it's atomic number is nine which is why the element has nine protons, and electrons, and nine neutrons because of it's mass number.

Hope this helps.
