Smaller than a neutron
No, protons and neutrons are in the nucleus and the electrons orbit around the nucleus. This all happens inside the atom.
Yes. The electron is the smallest whole particle.
No, an electron is MUCH smaller than a neutron. About 1/1836 or something like that. Just Google "mass of an electron".
Protons and neutrons are the same size relatively, and are bigger than alpha particles and electrons; but, electrons are smaller than alpha particles.
Elections are much smaller than neutrons and protons. Neutrons and protons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons orbit the nucleus in electron clouds. The electron is about 1/1836 times smaller in mass compared to a neutron or a proton.
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.
an electron is much lighter than a proton or 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.
Electrons for one, and protons and neutrons are composed of quarks
It really depends what particle you are comparing it to. Compared with the neutron and proton: The electron has a much smaller mass - roughly 2000 times smaller than the neutron or proton. As far as we know, the electron is a truly elementary particle. Protons and neutrons are made up of smaller particles (the quarks). The electron has a negative charge, the proton a positive charge, and the neutron is electrically neutral.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
They are much denser. it's the same with stars and neutron stars. Neutron stars are many times smaller than the original star but much heavier because they are so denser
