How does the mass of the neutron compare with the mass of the proton?
The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton. The neutron has no electric charge while the proton has a positive charge (+1 elementary charge). The mass of a neutron and a proton are 1.67492729(28)×10−27 kilograms and 1.672621637(83)×10−27 kilograms respectively. That makes the neutron about 25/10,000ths more massive than the proton.
Why does the neutron have the most mass in an atom?
Yes, a neutron has more mass than a proton or electron.
Does 24Na has one more proton than 23Na?
No- it has 1 more neutron
The most massive particle in an atom is the?
The neutron has slightly more mass than a proton. Both are usually rounded off to a mass of 1 amu but the neutron is just a little heavier (about 1/1800 th heavier)
What has a mass slightly less than that of a neutron?
A proton (or anti-proton).
Is it true that A proton is 24 times more massive than a neutron?
False. The mass of proton and neutron are almost similar.
How does the mass of an electron compare to that of a neutron?
The nucleus is far more massive than the electron cloud. The mass of the electron cloud is almost negligible compared to that of the nucleus.
Which particle has greatest mass alpha or proton?
They both have about the same mass. However, since a proton is made of three up-quarks and the neutron is made of two up-quarks and a down-quark, the neutron is slightly more massive than the proton (around 0.3% more massive).
Which is bigger a proton or neutron?
The neutron is 0.16% larger than a proton.
Does an electron have more maas than a proton or neutron?
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
Which particle is the lightest particale in the following 1. electon 2. neutron 3. proton 4. a-particles?
The electron is the lightest particle in the list. A proton is 1836 times more massive than an electron. Neutrons are just slightly more massive than a proton, and an alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons.

Why does the neutron have the most mass in an atom?
Yes, a neutron has more mass than a proton or electron.
In subatomic particles do protons and neutrons have the same mass?
The masses of protons and neutrons are very close, but not the same. A proton is about 1.001378 times more massive than a neutron.
Does 24Na has one more proton than 23Na?
No- it has 1 more neutron
What particle has the same mass as a neutron?
A positron, a neutron, a single proton, and a single electron are all considered to be equal in mass, however, a positron is generally referred to as an "anti-electron", as it travels at the velocity of light (like an electron), an has a positive charge (+1e, as opposed to an electron, which carries a negative charge, i.e: -1e).
The most massive particle in an atom is the?
The neutron has slightly more mass than a proton. Both are usually rounded off to a mass of 1 amu but the neutron is just a little heavier (about 1/1800 th heavier)
