How many times lighter is an electron than a proton?

The mass of an electron is approximately 1⁄1836 of a proton. Thus as hydrogen is made of one proton and one electron, hydrogen is 1837 times heavier than an electron.


How do the masses of one electron compare to the masses of protons and neutrons?

mass of electron = 1/1836 mass of proton (or neutron)


True or false the mass of a proton is about one atomic mass unit?

False - an electron is about 1/1836 the mass of a proton.


What is the ratio of a proton to the mass of a neutron?

The mass of a proton and neutron are pretty close. So the ratio will be roughly 1 to 1 (or 1:1). The neutron is heavier and if memory serves it is exactly the mass of an electron heavier than a proton. Note it takes around 1820 electron to equal the mass of one proton.


The charge and mass number of a proton are?

No, there are the same number of protons and electrons in an atom, but I don't think that they have the same mass. You're right, an electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton.


What particles the one with the least mass is the electron proton neutron or neutrino?

Neutrinos, but their mass is very, very small.


What are the protons in hydrogen atom?

The proton is an elementary particle with the mass 1.00727646677 atomic units of mass and the electrical charge +1. It is a hydrogen ion in which one electron is lost. But since hydrogen only has one electron and one proton, a hydrogen ion is just called a "proton", since only a proton is left.


Is the Mass of hydrogen atom is about the same as a proton?

Yes, in general. All hydrogen atoms contain one proton, most with no neutrons and all neutral atoms with one electron - and the electron has a much smaller mass. Some hydrogen atoms contain one (or, rarely, two) neutrons and so are heavier. But on average the atom has a mass much the same as a proton.


What have almost equal masses to the proton?

No, it isn't. The mass of an electron is significantly smaller than that of a proton.The mass of 1,800 electrons is about the same as the mass of one single proton.The antiparticle of the electron, the positron, has the same mass as the electron.the mass of the electron is not the same to the mass of the proton


Which particle has a mass that is approximately the same as the mass of a proton?

the neutral or no charge particle of an atom:it is located in the nucleus;has the same mass as the proton.


Which has more weight electron or proton?

A proton is heavier than an electron. MASS(kg): Proton - 1.67 × 10-27kg Neutron - 1.67 × 10-27kg Electron - 9.11 × 10-31 kg *A neutron is about .1% heavier than a proton.


How many protons and neutrons and electrons are in H?

There are 1 proton, 0 neutron and 1 electron in H1.
