Hey, it's Song_Writer_Girl13 here!

Protons have a +1 (postive) charge and a mass of 1

Neutrons have no electric charge and have a mass of 1

Electrions have a -1 (negative) charge and have a mass of about 0 (there actual mass is so small we just say it's about 0)

Therefore, electrons have the greatest mass of the three subatomic particles.

Hope I helped!

The heaviest particle (out of electrons, neutrons, and protons) is the neutron.

The size of a neutron is hard to measure. Neutrons are very small, and therefore act with more quantum properties than everyday objects, which complicates things. It could be said that neutrons and protons are about the same "size", since they are each made of three quarks (although neutrons have 2 down quarks and an up quark, and protons have two up quarks and a down quark.) We do know, however, that neutrons are more massive.
