How can a nitrogen atom become an ion?
In a nitrogen atom's ground state, it has five atoms. The electron will have to gain three electrons to become stable.
Do protons in a very large nucleus have a greater chance of flying apart?
Sort of... The general tendency is for a larger atom to be less stable. Above a certain point (after lead) no stable atoms are known to exist.Sort of...

How many valence electron are needed for an atom to be stable?
It depends on the atom. List what element the atom is from.
How many electrons is there in boron if there is a atomic number or 5 and atomic mass of 11?
All you need is the atomic number, which gives the number of protons, in this case, 5. In any neutral atom the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons. So any neutral boron atom will have 5 electrons.
What must a non-metal atom such as iodine do to become stable?
An atom of a nonmetal becomes an ion, specifically an anion, by attracting to itself one or more electrons from one or more atoms of one or more other and less electronegative elements.
Is boron a neutral atom or an ion?
Boron can exist in both forms, as a neutral atom or as an ion. In its most common form, boron is a neutral atom with five electrons. However, boron can also form ions by gaining or losing electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What is the ion charge of boron atom?
The ion charge of a boron atom can vary depending on the specific ion formed. Boron typically forms ions with a charge of +3 by losing three electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
How does a atom become stable?
When the atom has 8 valence electrons.
Is boron protons electrons or neutrons?
Boron is an atom or element, and it contains protons, electrons, and neutrons.
What kind of bond exists between a boron atom and an iodine atom?
A covalent bond exists between a boron atom and an iodine atom. In this bond, the atoms share an electron pair to achieve a stable electronic configuration. Boron has 3 valence electrons, while iodine has 7, so they can share electrons to complete their outer electron shells.
Is boron an atom?
Boron is an element, and there are certainly atoms of boron. Saying that "boron is an atom" is a slight misuse of terminology, though.
How many neutrons are in the nucleus of boron?
Boron has 2 isotopes and both are stable thus, depending on the isotope, an atom of Boron could have 5 or 6 neutrons in it nucleus. 10B has 5 neutrons (and 5 protons) 11B has 6 neutrons (and 5 protons) As about about 80% of all boron is 11B, most Boron atoms will be found to have 6 neutrons.
Is boron a stable element?
boron can be stable maybe if it is in the room temperature
What is the hybridization of the boron atom in BF3?
The boron atom in BF3 has sp2 hybridization.
What is the symbol and number of electrons in a neutral atom of boron?
The symbol of a boron atom is "B", and the number of electrons in a neutral atom is the same as the number of protons, which equals the atomic number of boron: 5.
The atomic number of boron is 5 what does this tell you about an atom of boron?
The atomic number of boron (5) indicates the number of protons in the nucleus of a boron atom. This means that a boron atom has 5 protons. Since atoms are electrically neutral, it also tells us that a boron atom has 5 electrons to balance the positive charge of the protons.
What type of substance is a boron Atom?
Boron, mostly.
