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.
Is a proton more massive than a neutron?
Yes... if you mean is it bigger
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.
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.
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.
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).
Is the mass of an electron greater then the mass of a proton?
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.
Is the mass of a proton greater then the mass of a electron?
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.
What is the neutral part of an atom that gives the atom more mass?
Neutron. It is electrically neutral, and coincidentally about as massive as a proton plus an electron.
Does an electron have more maas than a proton or neutron?
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
Do electons have more mass than protons?
No. A proton is several hundred times more massive.
