Verified Answer :

neutrons = atomic mass -protons (atomic number), so the answer is 9

The mass number of a boron atom with 4 neutrons is "9".

Given:

  • Atomic number of boron = 4
  • Number of neurons = 4

As we know the formula,

→ \(Number \ of \ neurons = Mass \ number -Atomic \ numbe\)

or,

→ \(Mass \ number =Number \ of \ neurons +Atomic \ number\)\

By substituting the given values, we get

→                        \(= 4+5\)

→                        \(= 9\)  

Thus the above answer is correct.
