Which energy-level changes for an electron is least energetic?
The inner, or K shell, of the electron cloud has the least energy.
Is a proton an electron or a neutron used to form bonds?
Electron
Is an example of an electrostatic force acting in an atom neutron attracting an electron a proton attracting an electron an electron attracting another electron a neutron attracting a proton?
This is valid only for the attraction between a proton and an electron.
What is smallest atom neutron electron or ion?
The electron has the least mass of the three mentioned. That's why the valance electrons are the determining factor in most reactions. The proton closely follows the neutron because they are exactly the same except for charge. This leaves the the electron as the lightest sub-atomic particle.
If a proton had a mass of 1 what is the mass of an electron and neutron relative to the mass of the proton?
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
Do a neutron and an electron have approximately the same mass?
No, a neutron is about 1836 times the mass of an electron
How does an electron differ from a neutron?
An electron has a negative charge to it, whilst a neutron has a neutral charge to it.
Is the charge of a electron always equal to the charge on a neutron?
The charge on an electron is never equal to the charge on a neutron. An electron carries one negative charge and a neutron has no net charge.
How many particles do the atom have?
5, electron, proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron cloud.
What heappens to an atom that experiences radioactive decay?
Electron capture is the absorption of an electron by an atomic nucleus if that nucleus is neutron poor. An electron is captured, usually from an inner electron shell of that atom, and it will convert a proton in the nucleus into a neutron. We know that a neutron is converted into a proton and an electron in neutron decay, so it might be looked at as something of an opposite nuclear reaction where a proton and an electron combine to form a neutron.
What are the charges on the pronton electron and neutron?
The proton has a positive charge. The electron has a negative charge. And the neutron has a no charge.
Does an electron have more maas than a proton or neutron?
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of 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.

What subatomic particles are closest in mass proton and neutron neutron and electron proton and electron electron and ion?
Mg+2 and Br-1
Which has the most mass an electron proton or a neutron?
This particle is the neutron.
What have a neutral charge proton neutron electron plasma?
neutron
