A proton is positively charged and an electron is negatively charged
Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom
We know that the energy contained by the PROTON and NEUTRON is together greater than the energy of ELECTRON. This is the reason that the mass of proton and neutron is greater than the mass of electron.
Now,I think that you are wondering that how energy can effect mass. So the answer is very simple that was given by ELBERT EINSTEIN: E=mc2. Here if energy of anything is greater than its mass will also be greater (When speed constant;that is denoted by C in the formula).
A proton is positively charged and an electron is negatively charged
A proton has a lower mass as it is constantly giving out a slight electromagnetic positive charge.
Carbon has 6 protons and boron only has 5 protons.
If a proton would be 1, an electron would be 0.000544. An electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton. A neutron would be 1.001 as a proton is 99.86% the mass of a neutron
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
A neutron has approximately the same mass as a proton. Electrons have much lower mass.
Proton has a greater mass than the electron.
the neutral or no charge particle of an atom:it is located in the nucleus;has the same mass as the proton.
A neutron could split into a proton plus an electron during the radioactive decay..
1.66 X 10 -27 kg (mass of proton/neutron)/9.109 X 10 -31 kg ( mass of electron) = 1822 times greater ===============
Mass ratio proton (neutron)/electron: 1 836
Mass ratio proton (neutron)/electron: 1 836
Mass ratio proton (neutron)/electron: 1 836
If a proton would be 1, an electron would be 0.000544. An electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton. A neutron would be 1.001 as a proton is 99.86% the mass of a neutron

The electron is the smallest having about 1/1836th the mass of a proton or neutron, which means that basically an electron has no mass. The neutron and proton weigh the same both having a mass of 1.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
The masses of all three particles are different The masses of a proton and the mass of a neutron are very close, however. The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
This particle is the neutron.
The electron has only a small fraction of the mass of the neutron. The neutron is about 1837 times as massive as the electron. The proton is just a tiny bit less massive as the neutron, so the proton and neutron are said to have about the same amount of mass.
