Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
The element boron has atomic number 5; therefore, there are 5 protons in each boron atom, because the atomic number of an element is defined as the number of protons in each atom of an element.
11
Boron Boron BoronBoron's atomic number is 5, meaning 5 protons and 5 electrons.Boron's Relative Atomic Mass is approximately 10.8To find neutrons, you subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.10.8 - 5 = 5.8 (or 5)Boron has 5 protons, 5 electrons and 5.8 neutrons
I think that's B, the symbol for the element boron. Boron has 5 protons and 5 electrons. The most common isotope has 6 neutrons. The other main isotope has only 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.
Boron-10 has five protons and 5 neutrons Boron-11 is an atom that contains five protons and six neutrons

a regular boron atom (5B11 isotope) has six neutrons and five protons
5 protons, 5 electrons and 6 neutrons :)
you can't tell the atomic mass of an atom if either the number of protons or neutrons is missing. But Boron with 5 protons and 6 neutrons has and atomic mass of 11.
it has 5 protons and 5 neutrons.
