Answer:

Option A. 9

Explanation:

Isotope results when there is a change in the Neutron number of an atom.

From the question,

Mass number of the sodium isotope = 20

But the atomic number of isotopes are constant. Therefore, the isotope has:

Proton = 11

Mass number = Neutron + Proton

Neutron = Mass number — Proton

Neutron = 20 — 11 = 9
