Your answer should be B.) 10

The atomic mass of an element is the sum of the element's protons and neutrons. The atomic number of an element is equal to its number of protons. To find the amount of neutrons in an atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass. 19 - 9 = 10.

Hope this helps!
