    14, 14, 14. I have no idea what the second part of that question means but since the atomic number is 14, there are 14 protons and in an atom protons and electrons are equal. The mass number being 28 is the number of neutrons plus the number of protons. Since there are 14 protons, 28-14=14 neutrons and 14 electrons
