How many isotopes does boron have?
Two stable ones, 10 & 11. Several unstable.
How can isotopes be used in boron?
isotopes are just things of the same element without one or more nuetrons
Is boron a natural or synthetic element?
Boron is both: Isotopes with mass numbers of 10 and 11 occur naturally, and isotopes with mass numbers of 8, 9, 12, and 13 have been synthesized.
How can you explain this difference The element boron has an atomic mass of 10.81amu acoording to the periodic tablehowever no single atom of boron has a mass of exactly 10.81amu?
There are several isotopes of Boron, which have different levels of abundance. I don't know the accurate numbers, but say like 25% of Zu-isotopes are 1 amu, and 75% of Zu-isotopes is 2, it would be 1.75 amu for the Atomic mass. Relating Zu to B of course, what I mean is Boron's different isotopes appear in different abundances and have different masses. 14% of boron may be about 6.882 amu, but just think about it like the above analogy of Zu, where Zu either weighs 1 or 2, but never 1.75. By the way, to find amu for an element: (%1*Iso1)+(%2*Iso2)+[...]
Why is boron's atomic mass 10.82 and not 11?
It's an average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
How many isotopes are in boron?
There is 13 isotopes in the element boron. xD
What are isotopes of boron?
Boron-11 (80%) and boron-10 (20%).
How many isotopes does boron have?
Two stable ones, 10 & 11. Several unstable.
Is boron radioactive?
There are no radioactive isotopes of boron that are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, however.
How can isotopes be used in boron?
isotopes are just things of the same element without one or more nuetrons
Which of these illustrations shows isotopes of the element boron?
1 and 3
Is boron a natural or synthetic?
Boron is both: Isotopes with mass numbers of 10 and 11 occur naturally, and isotopes with mass numbers of 8, 9, 12, and 13 have been synthesized.
What is the difference between boron and carbon?
they each have different atoms within them

What is the main difference between Boron and Carbon?
they each have different atoms within them
How many protons neutons and electrons are in boron?
Boron has 5 protons and 5 electrons Boron has two stable isotopes, one with 5 neutrons and 6 neutrons.
