Boron is in solid form at room temperature because its atoms are arranged in a crystal lattice structure that gives the substance a solid form. The strong covalent bonds between boron atoms hold the structure together and prevent it from melting into a liquid at room temperature.
Boron has a range of textures depending on its form. Elemental boron is a hard, brittle solid, while boron compounds can vary from powders to crystals with different textures.
In solid form it is black, but it is usually a powder and that is brown.
Boron is a solid at room temperature
Boron is a solid at room temperature. It is a metalloid element with a high melting point of 2076°C, so it remains in solid form under typical room temperature conditions.
Sulphur and boron can combine to form a boron sulfide compound. One such compound is boron sulfide (B2S3), which is a solid with varying stoichiometry depending on the exact conditions of the reaction.
Boron has a range of textures depending on its form. Elemental boron is a hard, brittle solid, while boron compounds can vary from powders to crystals with different textures.
At room temperature and standard pressure the element Boron is a solid.
In solid form it is black, but it is usually a powder and that is brown.
The "pure element form" of boron is a meteorite. Boron isn't very reactive...but since it's formed by cosmic rays it isn't very abundant either.

Boron is a solid at 20 0C.
The normal phase for boron is solid at room temperature.
No, boron is not a shiny silver liquid. Boron is a solid element that is typically a dark gray or black color in its most common form. It is a metalloid with properties that are in between those of metals and nonmetals.
Pure boron (a metalloid) is not found in nature. Boron will be combined with something else. Pure boron could be shiny, but will usually be a brown powder when combined with carbon.
Boron is a solid at room temperature and pressure.
