Al is aluminum and its number 13 well it has 13 electrons the reason why they put +3 is that u lose 3 electrons to make a full valence shell and if its negative 2 for example the number would be number 8 and add 2 more electrons which makes it a full valence shell

Three electrons are gained when going from Al to Al3+ because aluminum typically loses 3 electrons to become stable in its 3+ ion state.
Aluminum has 13 electrons because it has an atomic number of 13.

Aluminium will lose 3 electrons to form Al3+ ions.

Al2+ has 13 protonsAl itself has 13 electrons and 13 protons, 2+ means that Al has ''lost'' 2 electrons(and now have 11 electrons), the number of protons stays the same(13)Added:By the way, it is more common to take Al3+ as example, because Al has 3 valence electrons (in its outer shell) to donate to eg. oxygen: Al2O3 is formed.

Aluminum has 13 electrons because it has an atomic number of 13.
The cation Al3+
The ion of aluminium is 'three plus' Symbollically 'Al^(3+)'.
Aluminium lose 3 electrons and form the cation Al3+.

The symbol Al3+ refers to an aluminum ion that has a positive charge of 3. This means it has lost three electrons to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Actually all the ions will have. Al3+, O2- and N3- ions will have the same number of electrons as neon (10 electrons), whereas Br- ion will have the same number of electrons as krypton (36 electrons)
