Explanation:
1) Let us recall that;
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons
Where;
Number of protons = ?
Number of neutrons =20
Mass number =39
Number of protons = mass number - number of neutrons
Mass of protons =39 - 20= 19 protons
2) Atomic number = 13
Number of neutrons =14
Then the mass number =13 +14 =27
The symbol of the element is 27X13
The number of protons= the number of electrons =13
The atomic number is the same as the proton number =13
