 Explanation: 
Detailed explanation-1: -Hence, number of electrons = 13 Q. An element ‘X’ has atomic mass number = 27.
Detailed explanation-2: -The number of electrons: The number of electrons in any neutral atom is equal to the number of protons in the same atom, so, in Aluminium-27, the number of electrons is 13 .
Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, the number of neutrons is equal to 27 protons and neutrons minus 13 protons, which we can simplify to 27 minus 13 which gives us 14 neutrons.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cobalt is a chemical element with symbol Co and atomic number 27. Classified as a transition metal, Cobalt is a solid at room temperature.
