Oxygen has 8 protons and 10 electrons due to the addition of 2 electrons, determined from the ion charge. Likewise an ion of potassium has 19 protons and 18 electrons. Charge on fluorine would be -1 and charge on calcium would be +2. Atomic number is the same as the number of protons, so it would be 6, the mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons which would be 13, and the charge is 0, as it is an atom and not an ion.
