A chromatic scale will, by definition, have sharps and/or flats.
There are no flats in b-minor. B major has two flats, both B-flat and A-flat, but b-flat minor is the relative minor of D-major, which has a sharp key signature. The sharps in b-minor are F-sharp and C-sharp.
To make the Eb scale minor you would add 3 flats. Thus the Eb minor scale would have the flats of B,E,A,D,G and C. The last three flats, the Db, Gb, and the Cb, are the minor notes. If your Eb scale is already minor with only two flats, then the minors are Bb, Eb, and Ab.
That's a key that only exists in theory and not in practice (called an imaginary key), because it would have more than 7 flats. The key of G minor has 2 flats (Bb and Eb), so then key of G-flat minor would then have 9 flats. (The notes of that imaginary scale would be: Gb, Ab, Bbb, Cb, Db, Ebb, Fb, Gb) The enharmonic equivalent to G-flat is F-sharp, and F-sharp minor has 3 sharps.
+ 3 A minor + 5 B minor (2 flats) - 6 C minor (3 flats) -4 D minor (1 flat) -2 E minor (1 sharp) +1 G minor (2 flats)
an f minor scale written with sharps instead of flats, that uses e sharp as the tonic.
C Major, zero flats and zero sharps. The minor scale with the same number of flats and sharps is A Minor.
There are no flats in Em, just an F sharp!

E minor contains one sharp: F.
There are a total of fifteen keys in Western music. Keys come with two forms, sharp keys and flat keys and one comes with all naturals. The complete list of major keys are shown below: C major (or A minor) - no sharps/flats G major (E minor) - 1 sharp D major (B minor) - 2 sharps A major (F-sharp minor) - 3 sharps E major (C-sharp minor) - 4 sharps B major (G-sharp minor) - 5 sharps F-sharp major (D-sharp minor) - 6 sharps C-sharp major (A-sharp minor) - 7 sharps F major (D minor) - 1 flat B-flat major (G minor) - 2 flats E-flat major (C minor) - 3 flats A-flat major (F minor) - 4 flats D-flat major (B-flat minor) - 5 flats G-flat major (E-flat minor) - 6 flats C-flat major (A-flat minor) -7 flats There you go, those are all the different keys you can write in!
The key with 6 flats is G flat major (this is the same as the key with 6 sharps: F sharp major). The relative minor is e flat minor (also called d sharp minor).
