There are 9 protons and 9 electrons in a fluorine atom The only stable isotope has 10 neutrons
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 23 - 9 = 14
no of proton is 9 and no of neutrons is also 9.
there are 19 protons in a fluorine-19 atom. Ironic huh? There are 9 protons in the fluorine 19 nucleus. There are 10 neutrons. The atomic number of fluorine is 9, which is the number of protons in a nucleus. The isotope number is the total number of protons and neutrons. The number of neutrons is different between fluorine 18 and 19 (9 and 10 respectively). They both have 9 protons.
The nine protons tells you that the atomic number of the element is going to be nine. Element #9 happens to be Fluorine (F). The most common isotope of fluorine has t10 neutrons. If it doesn't have nine protons, though, it isn't fluorine.
The chemical symbol for fluorine isotope with 9 neutrons is 18F (18 is a superscript).
18F
The atomic number of fluorine is 9. So there are 9 protons and 9 electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope. F-19 isotope has 10 neutrons.
In a neutral atom of fluorine, there are 9 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with an isotope's mass number.
9 protons, 9 electrons and 10 neutrons in F-19 isotope.

The number of protons is the same as the atomic number, which is nine in this case. If the atom is neutral, then the number of electrons will balance the number of protons, also nine in this case. Usually, the number of neutrons will vary with the isotope (atoms with a different number of neutrons) however, fluorine has only one natural isotope, 18F, with nine neutrons.See link below for more information on fluorine, as well as the related question below that will show you how to find the number of each subatomic particle in any atom.
Number of neutrons = Mass number - atomic number = 23 - 9 = 14
The stable isotope, Fluorine-19, has 10 neutrons.
The atomic number of fluorine is 9. So it has 9 protons and 9 electrons. Number of neutrons depends on the isotope. Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number F-19 has 10 neutrons
no of proton is 9 and no of neutrons is also 9.
Giving a specific number of protons and neutrons specifies an isotope of an element. In this case, the isotope is the isotope of fluorine with an atomic mass of 19. Other isotopes of fluorine with different numbers of neutrons also exist, but are not nearly as common.
