A substance with 13 protons in each atom is aluminum. With 14 neutrons, it has a mass number of 13 + 14 = 27, and with only 10 electrons is has 13 - 10 = 3 net positive charges. This can be written as 27Al+3.

The number of protons determines the element, so Substance X has 13 protons, which corresponds to the element Aluminum (symbol Al). The number of protons and neutrons combined give the Atomic Mass of Substance X, so it has an atomic mass of 13 + 14 = 27.
