Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.


What element on the periodic table has 6 protons 6 neutrons and 6 electrons?

Only carbon has 6 protons. Specifically, this is a neutral atom of the isotope 12C.


What is the number of protons neutrons and electrons of carbon 12?

Carbon-12 has 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. The number of protons determines the element (carbon), the number of neutrons plus protons gives the mass number (12), and in a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.


What is the mass number of an element that consists of 6 protons 6 electrons and 8 neutrons?

Just add the protons and the neutrons. The answer is 14.


Which element has 6 protons 5 neutrons and 8 electrons?

The isotope boron-11 has 5 protons and 6 neutrons, but also 5 electrons not 8.


Which pair below describes isotopes of the same element Aan atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons - an atom with 8 protons an 6 neutrons Ban atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons - an atom with 6 p?

The pair below that describes isotopes of the same element is B, an atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons-an atom with 6 protons. It is not A, an atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons- an atom with 8 protons and 6 neutrons. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, which is the atomic number of the element.


Which element has 6 protons and 6 neutrons?

carbon or boron


What element has 2 electrons 3 protons and 4 neutrons?

There is no such element: an element is neutral, so it has equal numbers of protons and electrons.Impossible:2 protons 4 neutrons and 3 electrons is the IMpossible He-1 isotope with mass number 6 (=2p+4n). Helium does not accept electrons because it is noble.Possible:2 protons 4 neutrons and 2 electrons is (elemental) Helium, isotope with mass number 6 (=2p+4n)3 protons 4 neutrons and 3 electrons is (elemental) Lithium

How do two isotopes of an element similar?

Every element has a set number of protons. Always. Electrons are determined by the charge on the atom. If it is positive, it has fewer electrons than protons; if it is negative, it has more electrons than protons. Isotopes are atoms with different numbers of neutrons. So, neutral carbon-12 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Likewise, neutral carbon-14 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 14 neutrons. Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes


What is the mass of an element with 4 protons 6 electrons 3 neutrons?

The mass of the isotope 7Be is 7,01692983(11) u. The isotope 7Be has 4 protons, 3 neutrons and 4 electrons (not 6).


How many protons and electrons and neutrons in carbon?

6 of each in a neutral (non-ion) atom. The carbon atom contains 6 protons. The number of electrons in any element can vary. These atoms are called ions, where the atoms may lose or gain electrons.
