Boron has an atomic mass of 11. how many neutrons are in its nucleus? use the periodic table if you wish.

The number of neutrons in boron are 6.

Explanation:

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or electrons that are present in a neutral atom.

Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of neutrons + Number of protons.

We are given:

Mass number = 11

Atomic number of boron = 5

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number = 11 - 5 = 6

Hence, the number of neutrons in boron are 6.

can you attach a picture of the lettuce? : )

it's filtration, but this is an assumption so my apologies if i got this
