What is the abundance of boron in the earth's crust?
Most naturally ocurring elements are a mixture of different isotopes. Look up boron for more details; I didn't look it up, but I can imagine that it consists of a mixture of isotopes that have an atomic mass of 10 and 11; or perhaps some other isotopes too. Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons.
How do carbon 11 and boron 11 differ?
There are 5 neutron in b-10, and 6 in boron-11
How many electrons protons neutrons boron have?
5 Protons,6 Electrons,5 Neutrons
In one atom how many protons and neutrons does the element boron have?
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.
Is boron atomicly bigger or smaller than Oxygen?
Boron has a larger atomic radius but a smaller atomic mass.
Why is boron's atomic mass 10.82 and not 11?
It's an average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.
The average atomic mass of boron is 10.81 amu. Based on the atomic mass of B-10 and the relative abundances of the boron isotopes what is the atomic mass of B-11?
B-10 is 10.013

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)+[...]
What is the isotopic symbol of boron?
B is the atomic symbol. a number of different Isotopes exist for this element.6B, 7B, 8B, and so on and so forth.
How many isotopes are in boron?
There is 13 isotopes in the element boron. xD
Why scandium and boron in different groups?
They have different atomic numbers.
What are isotopes of boron?
Boron-11 (80%) and boron-10 (20%).
How may protons neutrons and electrons does Boron have?
There are two isotopes of boron: boron-10 and boron-11 Both have 5 protons and 5 electrons per atomBoron-10 has 5 neutrons and boron-11 has 6 neutronsOverall this gives an atomic weight of 10.8 gmol-1
How many isotopes does boron have?
Two stable ones, 10 & 11. Several unstable.
How do carbon 11 and boron 11 differ?
There are 5 neutron in b-10, and 6 in boron-11
Is boron radioactive?
There are no radioactive isotopes of boron that are ordinarily found in nature. All elements have synthetic radioactive isotopes, however.
