Boron is one block to the left of carbon in the periodic table the atomic number of carbon is 6 the atomic number of boron is?
The atomic number of boron is 5, one less than the atomic number of the atom in the block to its immediate right.
Do oxygen nitrogen carbon boron have similar physical and chemical properties?
YES
Is boron shiny or dull?
Pure boron (a metalloid) is not found in nature. Boron will be combined with something else. Pure boron could be shiny, but will usually be a brown powder when combined with carbon.
Were does the name boron come from?
It is just named the boron group. The elements in the group are boron (B), aluminum (Al), gallium (Ga), indium (In), thallium (Tl), and unumtrium (Uut) (scienticially prepared). The boron group all have 3 electrons in their valence levels making them an unstable group.
In one atom how many protons and neutrons does the element boron have?
This is very simple, just look at the periodic table. Boron has the atomic number of 5, meaning that it has five protons and five electrons. As for the neutrons, most chemicals have isotopes, which means that one atom of an element may have a slightly lower or higher neutron count of an atom of the same element. In boron's case, it has two isotopes. Boron-10 would have 5 neutrons, and Boron-11 would have 6 neutrons, although boron-11 makes up somewhere in the range of 80% of known boron atoms.
How do boron-10 boron-11 differ?
There are 5 neutrons in boron-10 and 6 neutrons in boron-11.
How do boron -10 and boron -11 differ?
There are 5 neutron in b-10, and 6 in boron-11
How do boron 10 and boron 11 differ?
For starters they are both isotopes of Boron. The boron in the periodic table has an atomic weight of 10.8, which is basically the average of all of boron's isotopes' atomic weights.An isotope is an atom of an element with the same number of protons, but a different numberof neutrons.This means that the atomic number (proton number: in boron's case this is 5) is the same (which is good, as it's the number of protons which determines what element is which), but the mass number will be different.For example. Carbon 12 has 6 protons, 6 neutronsand 6 electrons. A well known isotope of Carbon 12 is Carbon 14. Note that the number is always the mass number. This means that in Carbon 14, there are still 6 protons and 6 electrons (we know this as it is still carbon; hence still has 6 protons, and is still neutral; hence still has 6 electrons), but there are 8 neutrons.So the difference between boron 10 and boron 11 is that boron 10 has one less neutron than boron 11, or, equally, boron 11 has one more neutron than boron 10.This means that they will have the same chemical properties (will react the same), but will have different physical properties (eg. Boron 11 will be slightly heavier than boron 10).
Are boron and carbon similar?
Boron and carbon are not similar but both are nonmetals.
What do you get when you mix carbon and boron together?
Under favorable conditions, carbon and boron can react to form boron carbide.
Is boron-10 or boron-11 more abundant?
Boron -11
Which element is lighter among these carbon boron uranium?
Boron is lighter than carbon and uranium.
Why does boron-11 have 5 protons and 5 neutrons?
Boron-11 is an isotope. The atomic number of Boron is 5 which means it has 5 protons, (if there were more or less protons the element wouldn't be boron). the isotope number (11) is the number of protons plus neutrons. to find out the number of neutrons you would take take the isotope and subtract it by number of protons (11-5) which yields 6. To find the isotope add the number of protons to the number of neutrons.
Origin of boron?
Boron comes from borax and carbon combined (since it was thought to resemble carbon and is contained in borax).
How did boron get its name?
Boron got its name from the elements "borax" and "Carbon"
What are isotopes of boron?
Boron-11 (80%) and boron-10 (20%).
What is the most boring element?
The answer is Carbon
