The mass of a proton is far less than one gram. Even a billion protons wouldn't equal one gram. Therefore, scientists use AMUs (Atomic Mass Units) as a unit of measurement for atoms and subatomic particles such as the proton.

If a proton had a mass of 1 what is the mass of an electron and neutron relative to the mass of the proton?
If a proton would be 1, an electron would be 0.000544. An electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton. A neutron would be 1.001 as a proton is 99.86% the mass of a neutron
Compare and contrast protons and neutrons?
Proton: 1,007 276 466 77(10) atomic mass units (u); positive electrical charge, component of the atomic nucleus Neutron: 1,008 664 915 6 (6) atomic mass units (u); neutral, component of the atomic nucleus Electron: 5,485 799 094 3(23).10-4 atomic mass units (u); negative electrical charge, components of the atom
How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of a proton and neutron?
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
What is a positive particle with a mass of 1 Dalton?
A proton has a mass of 1 Dalton
What is a proton exact mass?

What is the mass of proton in gm?
The proton mass (at rest) is 1.67262*10-24 gram,(a neutron is a bit heavier: 1.67493*10-24 gram)
What features do electrons protons and neutrons have?
The two important characteristics of a neutron are its mass and charge. These are described below. 1) Mass of neutron. The mass of a neutron is equal to mass of a proton. The relative mass of neutron in 1 u. the absolute mass of a neutron is 1.6 * 10^-24 gram. 2) Charge of neutron. Neutron has no charge. It is electrically neutral. The two important characteristics of a Proton are its mass and charge. These are described below. 1) Mass of proton. The Proton is actually a hydrogen atom which has lost its electron. Since mass of an electron is very small, we can say that mass of proton is equal to mass of a hydrogen atom. The relative mass of neutron in 1 u. the absolute mass of a neutron is 1.6 * 10^-24 gram. 2) Charge of proton. The charge of a proton is equal and opposite to the charge of an electron. So absolute charge of a proton is 1.6*10^-19 coulomb.
Which has a bigger mass proton or electron?
A proton. A proton has a mass of 1 a.m.u. while an electron has a mass of 1/1840 a.m.u.
