Boron is the 5th element of the periodic table and it's atomic number is 5. As, the number of protons and electrons are equal in a neutral atom, therefore, number of electrons and number of protons in boron is 5. Moreover, in Boron-11 the number of neutrons is 6.

11 is the Atomic mass which is the # of protons plus neutrons. From the periodic table you see Boron has 5 electrons ie. It must have 5 protons. So the math is 11-5 = 6 neutrons.
