Which element has atoms which contain 5 protons?
The answer is Boron :)
What is the name of this formula BF3?
Boron trifluoride.
What are several products of photosynthesis that are important to humans?
Oxygen and carbohydrates are products of photosynthesis that are important to humans.
Is boron a valence electrons?
what is boron enery levels
Boron-state of matter room temp?
Boron is a solid.
Is boron harmful to humans?
Boron is nontoxic to humans. It is found in our food and drink, so it must be.
Is boron poisonous?
Boron is not poisonous to humans, plants, or animals.
Why is boron important?
Boron is important because it helps plants grow faster.
Is boron generally dangerous?
No, not to humans or mammals.
What is the bad effect of boron in your body?
Boron affect the way the human body handles other minerals such as magnesium and phosphorus. Boron doses of 5-6g Boron in infants or 15-20g in adults causes acute death in humans
How is boron important?
It is used in neon signs
What does boron do in the human body?
The simple substance of Boron is hazardous and poisonous to human body. Human body does not actively absorb or store boron. There is no widely accepted theory or evidence showing Boron is playing any important function in human body. Boron is an essential plant nutrient, although higher soil concentrations of boron may also be toxic to plants. As an ultra-trace element, boron is necessary for the optimal health of rats and presumably other mammals, though its physiological role in animals is poorly understood. Does human body contain any boron? No, or almost No: boron in human body is even less than 0.0001% (100 Kg human body contains less than 0.08 grams of boron). Boron is basically a plant micro-nutrient, as far as we know boron is harmful to humans.
What is the importance of boron?
Boron is a chemical that is naturally occurring in Earth's crust and outer space. Boron in very small quantities is important for maintaining levels of calcium, magnesium, phosphorous in the body.
What are the chemical proporties of boron?
There are a few chemical properties of boron. The most important properties are atomic mass, density and iconic radius.
Is boron poisonous or hazardous?
When humans consume large amounts of boron-containing food, the boron concentrations in their bodies may rise to levels that can cause health problems. Boron can infect the stomach, liver, kidneys and brains and can eventually lead to death. We do need very small amounts of it for good health but too much is not good.
Is boron in the human body?
No, or almost No: boron in human body is even less than 0.0001% (100 Kg human body contains less than 0.08 grams of boron). The simple substance of Boron is hazardous and poisonous to human body. Boron is an essential plant nutrient, although higher soil concentrations of boron may also be toxic to plants. As an ultra-trace element, boron is necessary for the optimal health of rats and presumably other mammals, though its physiological role in animals is poorly understood. In conclusion, boron is basically a plant micro-nutrient, as far as we know boron is damaging to humans.
Important uses of boron?
It is used to make pyrex glass, fibreglass, detergents, bleaches and it is an important plant nutrient.
