Boron has 5 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is specific for each isotope.

Number of neutrons in a boron isotope = Mass number - 5

Bromine's atomic number is 35. Thus, neutral bromine has 35 protons and 35 electrons. 79Br and 81Br are its two stable isotopes, having 44 and 46 neutrons, respectively. Therefore, the total number of subatomic particles for 79Br is 114 and 116 for 81Br.

But we know know there are three quarks (elementary particle) to every neutron and proton . so 114 * 3 = 342. Gluons are also particles which carry the strong force, which holds them together. estimating the amount of these is difficult and can vary but its around one for every quark. so 342 * 2 = 684 ! particles

the stable isotope of Boron contains 5 protons and 6 neutrons but every proton and neutron is composed of 3 quarks so there are 33 fundamental particles in Boron nucleus.

The number of particles should equal the Atomic weight which describes the number of Neutrons plus the number of protons in the nuculeus in this case the Atomic weight is 80

When the nucleus boron-10 is bombarded with neutrons it absorbs a neutron and then emits an alpha particle How many protons does the resulting nucleus have?

If boron-10 absorbs a neutron, it becomes boron-11. Boron-11 is stable and does not emit any particles. Please restate the question.


How many protons do all boron atoms have?

Boron atoms have 5 protons. You can derive this from the periodic table because the atomic number is the amount of protons the nucleus of an atom contains.


How many neutrons are in the nucleus of boron?

Boron has 2 isotopes and both are stable thus, depending on the isotope, an atom of Boron could have 5 or 6 neutrons in it nucleus. 10B has 5 neutrons (and 5 protons) 11B has 6 neutrons (and 5 protons) As about about 80% of all boron is 11B, most Boron atoms will be found to have 6 neutrons.
