How many neutrons are in the element

How many electrons are in the element

Solutions

Expert Solution

The given element is Boron with symbol B.The atom is represented as 11B5 in the question.

Where 11 = A ,the atomic mass and 5 = Z ,the atomic number.

The number of protons in an element= Z ,atomic number.

So the number of protons in the element = 5

The number of neutron= A-Z = 11-5 = 6

So the number of neutrons in the atom is 6.

As atom of the element given is neutral in charge, it will have the number of electrons and protons as same.

So the element has 5 electrons.

A sodium atom (Z = 11) contains 11 protons in its nucleus. Strictly speaking, the Bohr model does not apply, because the neutral atom contains 11 electrons instead of a single electron. However, we can apply the model to the outermost electron as an approximation, provided that we use an effective value Zeffective rather than 11 for the number of protons in the nucleus. (a) The ionization energy for the outermost electron in a sodium atom is 5.1 eV. Use...
