True or false the mass of a proton is about one atomic mass unit?
False - an electron is about 1/1836 the mass of a proton.
The weight of subtomic particles is measured in units called atomic mass units true or false?
Yes, true: the mass of 1 proton is exactly the same as of 1 neutron: 1 a.m.u.
Is it true or false Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom?
False. A proton is found inside the nucleus of an atom.
Is it true that the mass number of an atom can be less than the proton?
No.
What subtomic particle has the same mass as a proton?
Commonly considered to be a neutron. However the true mass of a neutron is slightly higher than the combined mass of a proton and an electron.

Is a proton is a proton is a proton. True or False?
If a proton, is a proton then it is a proton. (True).
Is it true that A proton is 24 times more massive than a neutron?
False. The mass of proton and neutron are almost similar.
Base weight a system of comparing atomic weights to carbon is it true or false?
True. The unit for the atomic weights of chemical elements is the relative atomic mass unit (1/12 from the atomic mass of the isotope 12C). Note that atomic weights is used for elements and atomic mass for isotopes.
A proton is a subatomic particle carrying a charge equal to but opposite that of an electron true or false?
True. But please note that there are other differences between the proton and the electron as well - for example, the proton has a larger mass, and the proton is made up of smaller particles, while the electron - as far as we know - is not.
Are neutrons a lot lower in mass than protons?
No they about the same. The mass of a proton is 1.6726x10^-27kg or 1.0073U and the mass of a neutron is 1.6749x10^-27kg or 1.0087U.
Is it true or false Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom?
False. A proton is found inside the nucleus of an atom.
Is it true or false that the proton and the electron have similar masses but opposite electrical charges?
False. A proton is about 2000 times heavier than an electron.
Is a neutral atomic particle is called a proton.?
TRUE
Is it true that the mass number of an atom can be less than the proton?
No.
