A boron atom usually has 5 neutrons.
a regular boron atom (5B11 isotope) has six neutrons and five protons
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.
5 protons, 5 electrons and 6 neutrons :)
It depends on what isotope you are asking for, or if you are asking for an isotope at all.

Boron-10 has five protons and 5 neutrons Boron-11 is an atom that contains five protons and six neutrons
This is very simple, just look at the periodic table. Boron has the atomic number of 5, meaning that it has five protons and five electrons. As for the neutrons, most chemicals have isotopes, which means that one atom of an element may have a slightly lower or higher neutron count of an atom of the same element. In boron's case, it has two isotopes. Boron-10 would have 5 neutrons, and Boron-11 would have 6 neutrons, although boron-11 makes up somewhere in the range of 80% of known boron atoms.

There are five neutrons in one atom of boron with a mass number of 10. Boron has an atomic number of 5, so 10 (mass number) - 5 (atomic number) = 5 neutrons.
Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
The mass number of an atom is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in its nucleus. In this case, with 5 protons and 6 neutrons, the mass number of the boron atom would be 5 + 6 = 11.
