How many sharps and flats are there on the keyboard?

It depends on what kind of keyboard. If it's a standard 88-key piano, all of the black keys are the sharps and flats. There are 36 black keys in total. If that doesn't answer your question, each black key is the sharp of the white key directly behind it and that sharp is also the flat of the white key directly in front of it. For example, a G sharp is the same as an A flat. These identical notes are called enharmonics. So technically, there are more sharps and flats in the keyboard than there are black keys because some of them overlap. Also, if there is a white key directly in front of another white key, the second white key is the sharp of the first one and vice versa. For example, B and C are two white keys next to each other on the keyboard. A B sharp is actually a C natural and a C flat is the same as a B natural.
