Five protons and five electrons. It has two stable isotopes with five and six neutrons, respectively.
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.
I'm almost positive the protons always tell you the identification of an element on the periodic chart... the atom with 6 protons is Carbon a non metal but if electrons are 5 then it must be carbon cation C+.
A neutral atom has equal numbers of elecrons and protons.
The charge of an atom of boron is neutral. Boron has 5 protons and 5 electrons, giving it an equal number of positive and negative charges, resulting in a neutral overall charge.
yes,,,because the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. No, when electons are lost or gained by an atom (number of protons stays the same) the atoms become 'ions,' which are positively or negatively charged respectively.

Yes, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons. The number of protons is also equal to the number of electrons
Protons, because electrons are equal to the atomic number and protons are equal to the number of electrons.
Disregard the electrons, as their relative mass is insignificant to that of protons and neutrons. To find atomic mass, add the numbers of protons and neutrons: 5 + 6 = 11 is the mass number.
Yes , the no. of electrons is equal to the no. of protons
Nobelium has 102 protons and 102 electrons, as the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, and in a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
protons and electrons protons and electrons
The number of electrons should = the number of protons.
No, the number of valence electrons is not always equal to the number of protons. The number of valence electrons is determined by the group number of an element on the periodic table, while the number of protons is the atomic number of the element.
Do you mean what does the number of protons equal? This is the atomic number of the element. All isotopes of an element will have the same number of protons, only the number of neutrons varies.
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons, for a neutral atom.
