【2 Steps】How Many Protons Does Boron Have?||Number of Protons in Boron||Atomic Number of Boron
How Many Protons Does Boron Have?||Number of Protons in Boron
First,we have to look for the symbol for boron in the periodic table.
Step-2:
Now we will look at the number situated upper right of the boron element's symbol.
From periodic table ,we observe that this number for boron is 5.This number is called atomic number and expresses the number of protons in the boron's element.So there are five protons in boron.
Nice to know:
Remember that the atomic number of boron is 5.This means that in a neutral boron atom we have five protons and five electrons.
As the charge of proton is +1 and the charge of electron is -1,equal number of protons and electrons make a boron atom neutral or chargeless
