What is charge to mass ratio of neutron?

The neutron has no charge, therefore the charge to mass ratio for the neutron is zero.


In the electron charge to mass experiment if the electron is replaced by a proton or neutron would the charge to mass ratio value still be the same why or why not?

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.


Why is the charge to mass ratio of proton not constant?

The charge and mass ratio of proton is constant, the positive particles found during discharge tube experiment are nuclei of atoms which have different charge and mass ratio.


What is an alternative method to measure the charge to mass ratio of an electron?

Modern Mass Spectrometry is the alternative method to measure the charge to mass ratio of an electron.


Charge-mass ratio of a proton?

Mass of a Proton = 1.6726x10-27 kg Mass of a Neutron = 1.6749x10-27 kg The ratio is then: 0.99864


Why is the magnetic moment of a nucleus smaller than the magnetic moment of an electron?

Because the charge/mass ratio of a nucleus is smaller than the charge/mass ratio of an electron


Who determined the charge to mass ratio to the positive rays?

J.J.Thompson determined the electron charge to mass ratio. His results, however, were off by almost a factor of two, although they were consistent, leading us to believe there was some systematic error in his measurements.


Which atom has the highest charge to mass ratio?

It is Hydrogen.


Why is a mass spectrometer incapable of distinguishing between ions?

They have the same mass/charge ratio.


Who discovered the charge to mass ratio for the electrons?

Millikan found the charge of an electron by his famous oil drop experiment. J J Thomson determined the specific charge of the electron. That means the ratio of the charge of an electron to its mass. With these two values one can find the mass of electron by dividing the charge value by its specific charge.


Charge to mass ratio of electron?

1.759 x 1011 Coulomb per Kilogram


Does it matter what number goes first in a ratio and can you explain?

it matters in lots of cases. by definition speed or velocity is the ratio of distance traveled to time taken. In equation form v = d/t distance must be first. density is the ratio of mass to volume density = mass/volume mass is first
