A student records the numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons in four ions.
| Ion | Protons | Neutrons | Electrons |
|---|---|---|---|
| 23Na+{}^{23}\mathrm{Na^{+}}23Na+ | 11 | 12 | 12 |
| 19F−{}^{19}\mathrm{F^{-}}19F− | 9 | 10 | 10 |
| 40Ca2+{}^{40}\mathrm{Ca^{2+}}40Ca2+ | 20 | 20 | 22 |
| 27Al3+{}^{27}\mathrm{Al^{3+}}27Al3+ | 13 | 13 | 10 |
For which ion are all three numbers correct?
23Na+{}^{23}\mathrm{Na^{+}}23Na+
27Al3+{}^{27}\mathrm{Al^{3+}}27Al3+
40Ca2+{}^{40}\mathrm{Ca^{2+}}40Ca2+
19F−{}^{19}\mathrm{F^{-}}19F−
