How does an electron differ from a neutron?
An electron has a negative charge to it, whilst a neutron has a neutral charge to it.
Which has a greater mass an electron or a proton?
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
How does an electron differ from a neuron?
A neuron is one cell of a nerve, whereas an electron is a very small negatively charged particle found in an atom. You may, of course, have meant neutron rather than neuron, in which case the answer is that it is a very small particle found in the nucleus of an atom and has no charge.
An electron is much larger than an atom?
an electron is much much smaller than an atom. An electron is a portion of the nucleus in an atom.
How does the ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom differ from that of a ground state helium atom?
The ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom is 1s1, and for helium it is 1s2.
Are atoms of the same elements exactly alike?
yes other than the electron count may differ.
How does an electron differ from a neutron?
An electron has a negative charge to it, whilst a neutron has a neutral charge to it.
Are the electron arrangements in an isotope the same?
yes because only the number of neutrons differ.
How would a proton's motion differ from the motion of an electron placed at the same point in the same electric field?
First of all, the forces they experience would be in exactly the opposite directions. Secondly, because the mass of the proton is greater, it would have a lower acceleration than the electron.

How beta particle differ from electron beam?
very little, both will cause the same "beta burns" which look like a bad sunburn but are usually deeper than any sunburn can go.
Does an electron have a mass greater than a proton?
an electron has way less mass than a proton.
An electron is much larger than an atom?
an electron is much much smaller than an atom. An electron is a portion of the nucleus in an atom.
How does the ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom differ from that of a ground state helium atom?
The ground state electron configuration of the hydrogen atom is 1s1, and for helium it is 1s2.
How does electron differ from a neutro?
An electron bears a negative charge, a neutron has no charge.A neutron is about 2,000 times as massive as an electron.Neutrons exist in atomic nuclei, electrons orbit nuclei.
Does an electron have more maas than a proton or neutron?
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
