Answer :- Properities of Boron:-
Atomic Symbol : B
Additional Name: Acide Borique, Anhydride Borique. The name boron us derived from Arabic word "burah".
Atomic composition of most stable isotope: Most stable isotope is boron-11 (natural abundance =80.1%). It contains 5 protons, 5 electrons and 6 neutrons.
Additional isotopes with nuclear composition and natural abundance: Boron-10 (natural abundance = 19.9%). Other unstable isotopes also exists.
Molar Mass: 10.811 g/mol
State of matter at rt: Solid.
Colour and texture: Amorphous boron is brown powder in colour while crystalline boron is black and hard solid.
melting point : 2076 °C ,
Boiling point: 3927 °C
Density: 2.37 g/cm3
Classification on the periodic table: 1st element of Group 13. Period -2nd. p-block element.

Other special properties:-
Boron is metalloid.
Exists in allotropic forms.
Bad conductor of electricity (semiconductor).
Forms a number of series of hydrides called boranes.
Trihalides of boron are monomeric in structure.
Form only covalent compounds.
Hydroxide of boron B(OH)3 is weakly acidic.
