a. The symbol
\tt _(11)^(23)Na,
\tt _(18)^(40)Ar,
\tt _(15)^(31)P^(3-),
\tt _(13)^(27)Al^(3+)

b. Isotope of Na

Further explanation

Atomic number=number of protons=number of electrons(neutral atom)

Number of neutrons=mass number-atomic number

Mass number=protons+neutrons

B. atomic number=11, mass number=11+12=23⇒Sodium


\tt _(11)^(23)Na

C. atomic number=18, mass number=18+22=40⇒Argon


\tt _(18)^(40)Ar

D. atomic number=15, mass number=15+16=31, charge -3(electron-proton)⇒Phosphor


\tt _(15)^(31)P^(3-)

E. atomic number=13, mass number=13+14=27, charge +3(proton-electron)⇒Aluminium


\tt _(13)^(27)Al^(3+)

Isotope=the same atomic mass, different neutron(mass number)

So the atom⇒isotope of Sodium(Na)
