Boron (B) has two isotopes, boron-10 and boron-11. The atomic weight of boron is ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
suter [353]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Approximately 10,5

Explanation:

The question is not really very specific, because it would need the percentages of those isotopes in the nature. As they are not shown, it should be the median of those two numbers.

atomic weight ≈ \frac{10+11}{2} = 10,5

If you check a periodic table, you'll see it's actually 10,8, but that's because of the thing I told you at first (percentages missing).

Hope I could help.

Atomic number and the number of protons are the same...
Neutrons = Mass number - number of protons
Electrons are same # unless there is a charge 
The whole number you see on the periodic table is the atomic number of the element which is also same as the number of protons

1) carbon - 14  ;  Mass number = 14 , Protons = 6 , Neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8 
                                Electrons = 6 

2) Lead - 208  ; Mass # = 208 , Protons = 82 , Neutrons = 208 - 82 = 126
                          Electrons = 82

3) Uranium - 239 ; Mass # = 239  , Protons  =  92,Neutrons = 239 - 92 = 147
                                 Electrons =  92

4) Uranium - 238  ; Mass # = 238 , Protons = 92 , Neutrons = 238 - 92 = 146
                                   
Electrons = 92 

5) Tin - 118  ; Mass # = 118 , Protons = 50 , Neutrons = 118 - 50 = 68
                         Electrons = 50
