Any compound will have a much larger mass than an electron. The mass of an electron is around 1/2000th that of a proton or a neutron. Compounds are made up of multiple atoms, which in turn are made up of multiple protons and neutrons (except in the case of hydrogen), so there is a considerable mass difference.
It's interesting to note, however, that most of an atom's volume is actually made up of the electron cloud, which is the area within which electrons move about the nucleus. The nucleus, made up of protons and neutrons, is tiny in volume by comparison, even though it contains nearly all an atom's mass.
What else can I help you with?
Which ion in the compound K and Br is larger?
The Br ion is larger than the K ion. This is because the Br ion has more electron shells than the K ion, leading to a larger atomic radius.
Is a proton larger than a neutron which is larger that an electron?
Yes it is.
Which atom is larger nitrogen or carbon?
Nitrogen is larger than carbon. Nitrogen has one more electron and proton than carbon, resulting in a larger size due to increased electron-electron repulsion.
Is a proton larger or smaller than an electron?
Protons have a larger mass, but it is unclear which (if either) have a larger radius. The electron does not seem to have ANY measurable radius.
Is an atom smaller than a compound?
An atom is smaller than a compound because if an electron fits in an atom, and an atom is a part of a compound, it means a compound is bigger than an atom
How many times larger can an electron microscope magnify more than a light microscope?
An electron microscope can magnify objects up to 1,000,000 times, while a light microscope can typically magnify objects up to 2,000 times. This means an electron microscope can magnify objects 500 times larger than a light microscope.
Is a proton larger or smaller than electron?
An electron is 1/1,836 of a proton.
Why is fluoride ion larger than the fluoride atom?
The fluoride ion is larger than the fluoride atom because it has gained an extra electron, resulting in an increase in electron-electron repulsions, which causes the electron cloud to expand. This increase in electron-electron repulsions leads to a larger ionic radius compared to the atomic radius of the fluoride atom.
An oxygen ion is larger than the oxygen atom since?
an oxygen ion has gained electrons, increasing the electron-electron repulsion and making the electron cloud expand. This causes the ion to be larger than the neutral atom.
How does bromines atomic radius compared chlorine?
Bromine's atomic radii is larger than that of chlorine.
What one is larger a chlorine atom or a chloride ion?
A chloride ion is larger than a chlorine atom because it has gained an electron, leading to increased electron-electron repulsion and a larger ionic radius compared to the atomic radius of a chlorine atom.
Which is larger Ba or Ba2 plus?
Neither..they both have approximately the same weight as electrons are virtually weightless.bt the ba2 plus wud have to combine with another element for charge stability and the compound it forms shud be heavier than ba.
