The mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom. Boron typically has 5 protons, so if it possesses 6 neutrons, the mass number would be 11 (5 protons + 6 neutrons).

What the number of neutrons in boron?

It depends on what isotope you are asking for, or if you are asking for an isotope at all.


What are the number of protons neutrons and electrons in boron?

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


What subatomic particle identifies boron?

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


What percent of the mass of the isotope boron-10 are neutrons?

Boron-10 isotope has 5 neutrons out of a total of 10 particles, so the percentage of neutrons in boron-10 is 50%.


How many protrons and neutrons does boron contain?

5 Protons, 6 Neutrons. For future reference, the protons is the atomic number (right above the element symbol) To get the neutrons you subtract the atomic mass (underneath the symbol) by the number of protons. You have to round this number.


How many protons neutrons and electrons in B?

I think that's B, the symbol for the element boron. Boron has 5 protons and 5 electrons. The most common isotope has 6 neutrons. The other main isotope has only 5 neutrons.


How many protons and neutrons are present in boron?

The number of protons in an element is its atomic number. Boron's atomic number is 5 - ergo, there are 5 protons. The number of neutrons in an element is the difference between the atomic mass and the atomic number of an element. boron's atomic mass is 11. Therefore, 11 - 5 = 6. There are 6 neutrons in boron. In conclusion, there are 6 neutrons and 5 protons in boron.


Why does boron-11 have 5 protons and 5 neutrons?

Boron-11 is an isotope. The atomic number of Boron is 5 which means it has 5 protons, (if there were more or less protons the element wouldn't be boron). the isotope number (11) is the number of protons plus neutrons. to find out the number of neutrons you would take take the isotope and subtract it by number of protons (11-5) which yields 6. To find the isotope add the number of protons to the number of neutrons.
