Probably the two most important ones are that (i) protons have a positive electrical charge while electrons have a negative electrical charge and (ii) protons have almost two thousand times as much rest mass as electrons, so that electrons can be ignored in determining the mass number of an isotope.
What else can I help you with?
Is an example of an electrostatic force acting in an atom neutron attracting an electron a proton attracting an electron an electron attracting another electron a neutron attracting a proton?
Yes, an example of an electrostatic force acting in an atom is a proton attracting an electron. This attraction occurs due to the opposite charges of the proton (positive) and the electron (negative), leading to the electrostatic force of attraction between them.
How to get a ratio?
calculate the ratio between proton&electron
What is the ratio r proton /r electron of the radii of their circular paths?
The ratio between radius of proton to the radius of electron is just 0.3
What is the difference between an electron and proton and neutrons?
A proton is positively charged; a neutron has no charge and an electron is negatively charged, that is why it is attracted to the atom, which consists of protons.
What is the relationship between the charges of a proton and an electron?
Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge. The relationship between the charges of a proton and an electron is that they are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign.
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.
What is in between subatomic particles?
Subatomic particles are: neutron, proton, electron.
What are three subatomic paarticles in an atom?
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
How electron is converted into proton?
An electron will not decay into a proton by any means.
How big is a proton compared to a electron?
A proton is bigger than electron
How big is a electron compared to a proton?
A proton is bigger than electron
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
