Why is it important for electrons to have no mass?
Actually, electrons do have mass.
Do Electrons have weight?
Electrons have a mass of about 9.109389 * 10−31 grams.
Does electrons have the smallest mass?
not necessarily it has the smallest charge
What happens when there is a large number of electrons?
if there is a large amount of electrons, heat will be conducted very fast.
What has the smaller mass protons electrons or nutrons?
Electrons have a smaller mass than both protons and neutrons. Both protons and neutrons are over 1800 times as massive as electrons.
Do a valence electrons determine an electrons mass?
I'm not 100% certain what you were trying to ask, but I think the answer is "no". All electrons have the same rest mass.Valence electrons have higher energy (and therefore higher relativistic mass) than core electrons, if that's what you meant, but it's not a large factor; the difference in energy levels between valence electrons and core electrons even in large atoms is only a fraction of the electron's mass-equivalent energy.
Why is it important for electrons to have no mass?
Actually, electrons do have mass.
Does an electron have a large or small mass?
An electron has a very small mass, not a large mass.
How is mass related to electrons?
because the electrons plus the nuetrons equal the mass
An element's atomic mass does not include the mass of its?
...electrons, as they account for a negligible mass relative to the atom as a whole (electrons make up 1/1840th of the total mass, to be precise).
What is the mass of 3 electrons?
depends on the electrons
Do electrons have mass?
Yes, electrons have a mass of 9.1094 X 10−31 kg.
When calculating an atoms approximate mass how is the mass of electrons figured?
electrons are the same as protons
Why mass of electrons is excluded from atomic mass?
The mass of electrons is not excluded from atomic mass. The mass number of an isotope of an element excludes electrons because it is the sum of protons and neutrons.From Wikipedia, "The atomic mass (ma) is the mass of a specific isotope, most often expressed in unified atomic mass units. The atomic mass is the total mass of protons, neutrons and electrons in a single atom."
What is the mass of an ion with 107 electrons?
electrons have negligible mass. the mass of the ion depends on how many protons and neutrons are present.
When bromine reacts with other elements it gains electrons gaining electrons does not effect the mass of the bromine atoms explain why?
electrons have no mass
Who has the smallest mass electrons protons or neutrons?
Of the neutron, proton, and electron, the electron has the smallest mass.
