    =21 neutrons

    Explanation:

    The atomic mass of an atom is the total sum of the contents of the nucleus (protons and neutrons).

    Thus atomic mass = no. of neutrons + no. of protons

    Number of protons = The atomic mass-number of protons

    = 34 - 13 = 21

    That would be 21 neutrons (34-13=21).

    Atom mass is the number of protons+number of neutrons.
