Mass of a body is a positive quantity. The gravitational force between two masses is always attractive. Electric charge can be positive or negative or zero.

In the electron charge to mass experiment if the electron is replaced by a proton or neutron would the charge to mass ratio value still be the same why or why not?

Compared to the (charge/mass) ratio of the electron:-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the proton is much smaller; although the proton charge is equal to the electron charge, the proton mass is much larger, by a factor of more than 1,800.-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the neutron is zero, because the neutron charge is zero.

Is the the mass and charge of electrons compare to that of protons?

The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton. An electron has a charge of -1, while a proton has a charge of +1.


How do the total charge and total mass number of the products compare to the charge and mass number of the polonium nucleus?

In a nuclear reaction involving a polonium nucleus, the total charge and total mass number of the products must equal the charge and mass number of the polonium nucleus due to the conservation laws. The charge of the products will match the original charge, and the mass number of the products will be equal to the mass number of the polonium nucleus before the reaction. This ensures that both charge and mass are conserved in the process.
