Answer:

atomic mass = 20.2 amu

atomic number = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The atomic mass is the average mass of an atom of a particular element. For neon, the atomic mass is about 20.180 amu. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the atomic mass is 20.2 amu.

The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of a particular element. For neon, the atomic number is 10.

Both of these values can usually be found on the periodic table under neon (Ne).
