The masses of all three particles are different The masses of a proton and the mass of a neutron are very close, however. The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
About 1/1800.
No. The mass of a proton (1.672622 x 10-27 kg) is only slightly less than the mass of a neutron (1.674927 x 10-27 kg).
1.66 X 10 -27 kg (mass of proton/neutron)/9.109 X 10 -31 kg ( mass of electron) = 1822 times greater ===============
The mass of a proton is 2000 times the mass of an electron. Mass of electron: 9.10938 * 10-31 kg Mass of proton: 1.67262 * 10-27 kg Mass of neutron: 1.67493 * 10-27 kg Note that protons and neutrons weigh approximately the same (neutrons are slightly heavier), but electrons are MUCH lighter than both of them. The MASS of the electron is much smaller than neutrons and protons. It is common, but incorrect, to use mass and weight interchangeably. They are not synonymous.
A proton has a mass of 1 AMU (one atomic mass unit)
A neutron has approximately the same mass as a proton. Electrons have much lower mass.
A proton has what is known as one atomic mass unit (AMU) neutrons also weigh this much but electrons weigh much much less.
the neutral or no charge particle of an atom:it is located in the nucleus;has the same mass as the proton.
Simple division. 1.007316/0.000549 = 1835 times as large in mass, proton over the electron -----------------------------------------------------------------------

The electron, because it has much less mass than the proton and momentum is the product of mass and speed.
About 1/1800.
Compared to the (charge/mass) ratio of the electron:-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the proton is much smaller; although the proton charge is equal to the electron charge, the proton mass is much larger, by a factor of more than 1,800.-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the neutron is zero, because the neutron charge is zero.
yes much smaller
No. The mass of a proton (1.672622 x 10-27 kg) is only slightly less than the mass of a neutron (1.674927 x 10-27 kg).
Electrons are lighter than proton Electrons are elementary particles, and just happen to be among the lightest of them all. Protons and neutrons are not elementary (they consist of quarks and gluons) and just happen to be heavierer
