Protons and neutrons have approximately the same size and mass. A neutron is slightly heavy than a proton to be more accurate. In general we can say that they both have same mass which is 1 amu. The actual difference is 2.31 x 10-30kg), but are different charge (+1 and zero respectively).
Also, an electron and positron have the same mass and size and more generally, any particle will have the same mass as its antiparticle.
Protons and Neutrons are the same size, Electrons, which are on the outside. Are the smallest of them all. Hope this helps.

No, they are not. Neutrons are as big as protons and electrons are smaller than both protons and neutrons
Proton: 1,007 276 466 77(10) Atomic Mass units (u)
Neutron: 1,008 664 915 6 (6) atomic mass units (u)
Electron: 5,485 799 094 3(23).10-4 atomic mass units (u)
mass of an electron=9.109382*10^-28
proton=1.672622*10^-24
neutron= 1.674927*10^-24
they are the same size, but the mass of a neutron is roughly the sum of the mass of a proton plus the mass of an electron.
The proton and the neutron are approximately similar in size but the electrons are much smaller.
Neutrons and protons are similar in size. but protons are smaller than protons and neutrons.
Protons, neutrons and electrons are located in the atom. The protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus; the electrons are around the nucleus, arranged in shells.

There are 74 electrons in an atom of Tungsten
atoms are composed of protons, electrons and neutrons..
The isotope chlorine-35 has 17 protons and 18 neutrons.
An atom is a nucleus of protons and neutrons with electrons orbiting around. An element is an atom with a specific amount of protons, neutrons, and electrons. A molecule is a bunch of atoms stuck together.
It depends on the amount of electrons in the outer shells. The neutrons do not affect the charge of an atom as they are already neutron. There is only a charge if there is a difference in protons and electrons, not protons and neutrons.

Protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass, but the proton is electrically charged and the neutron isn't. Electrons have a much much lower mass and an opposite electrical charge to that of the proton. That's about as simple as I can get it. It's by no means the only difference between them.
Mercury (Hg) can ONLY have 80 protons, or else it cannot be mercury. The difference between its mass number (201) and 80 is 121, which is the number of neutrons. These can vary and are called isotopes. The number of protons can always only be 80 for mercury, tho.
The three constituents that make an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Rutherfordium has 104 electrons and 104 protons. The number of neutrons is between 149 and 264, depending on the isotope.
- protons are positive and neutrons are neutral- a small difference of mass exist
The same numbers of protons and of electrons; the difference between isotopes is in the number of neutrons.
Thorium 230 has 90 protons and 140 neutrons - the difference is 50.
