    Fluorine

    Explanation:

    Data obtained from the question include:

    The isotope of fluorine has:

    Proton = 9

    Neutron = 10

    The atomic number is the proton number of the atom.

    Therefore, the atomic number = 9

    Mass number = proton + Neutron

    Mass number = 9 + 10

    Mass number = 19

    Now comparing the above with the fluorine atom in the periodic table. We'll discover that the isotope is actually fluorine atom.

    Therefore, the name of the isotope is fluorine
