The proton has much more mass than the electron, by a factor of 1836 times, a ratio called "mu". Recent astronomical research suggests mu may have changed by 20 parts per million in the last 12 billion years, but I plan to wait at least a billion years for confirmation!

∙ 13y agoElectron: mass= 9.1 x 10-34 kg, charge= - 1.6 x 10-19C
Proton: mass= 1.672 x 10-27 kg, charge= +1.6 x 10-19C
neutron: mass= 1.674 x 10-27 kg, charge= zero.
This means that among the three neutron is the heaviest and neutron has zero charge whereas charge of electron and proton is equal but opposite.

What subatomic particle has an electric charge?
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
What particle is not located in the nucleus proton electron neutron quark?
The electron.
How do a proton and a electon compare?
They have opposite charges.
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.
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.
An electron has a greater mass than a proton?
the mass of an electron is actually about 1800 times lessthan a proton.
Does an electron have more maas than a proton or neutron?
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
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.
Which has a greater mass an electron or a proton?
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
Which has more massprotons or electron?
The mass of the proton is 1840 times more massive than an electron.
Can you generate the electricity by the moving of proton as electron?
No. While the proton has the opposite charge of the electron, the proton will not flow from atom to atom like the electron does because the strong atomic force holding the proton in the nucleus is much more powerful than the electromagnetic force.
Is a proton the opposite of a electron?
No. The opposite of an electron is an antielectron or positron, which has exactly the same mass but opposite charge. A proton has opposite charge from that of an electron, but it is about 1836 times more massive.
What are three subatomic paarticles in an atom?
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
Does a proton weigh more than an electron?
Yes. A protons is many times more massive than an electron.
How big is a proton compared to a electron?
A proton is bigger than electron
How electron is converted into proton?
An electron will not decay into a proton by any means.
