A proton has a positive charge and a neutron has a negative. The nutron travels in shells around the nucleus. this is what the bonding in a compound uses - convalent and ionic bonding. The ratio between the protons and the neutrons tell us whether something is postively charged or negatively charged.

In the electron charge to mass experiment if the electron is replaced by a proton or neutron would the charge to mass ratio value still be the same why or why not?

Compared to the (charge/mass) ratio of the electron:-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the proton is much smaller; although the proton charge is equal to the electron charge, the proton mass is much larger, by a factor of more than 1,800.-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the neutron is zero, because the neutron charge is zero.


Electrons have what type of a charge?

All electrons have an equal negative charge (-1 standard electron charge), which is opposite to the standard proton charge (+1).


What type f charge does a proton have?

A proton has a positive charge.


What type of charge do electrons have?

The charge of an electron is -1, and has a smaller mass of a proton. (For you Castle Learning users) :]negative chargeAn electron carries one fundamental unit of negative charge*, measured to be about 1.609 x 10-19 Coulombs.(* The negative designation is a convention, established in the earliest experiments with electricity long before the existence of the electron was known.)A proton has a +1 charge.A neutron does not have a charge, it is neutral.


Difference between hydrogen atom and a proton?

A hydrogen atom consists of a proton in its nucleus, along with an electron orbiting around it. A proton is a subatomic particle that is found in the nucleus of an atom and carries a positive charge. In other words, a hydrogen atom is a specific type of atom that contains a proton as one of its components.

What is the electric charge of each type of subatomic particle?

There are many subatomic partials but the three basic ones are: the electron, the neutron, and the proton. The electron has a negative (-) charge. the proton has a positive (+) charge. and, The neutron doesn't have a charge (but has more mass). if you where talking about quarks, they are a bit more complex (and theoretical) and I don't rely know...
