Which statement compares the masses of two subatomic particles?

Subatomic particles are measured in amu's--atomic mass units. Protons and neutrons are both approximately 1 amu, and electrons have a mass so much less as to be negligible (about 1/2000 that of a proton).


What is water mass?

What is water mass?depends on the volume of water but one molecule should be about ahhh lets seemolecules are measured in Atomic Mass Units (amu)hydrogen is 1 amu and oxygen is 16 amu so..h20 =h * 1 amu * 2 molecules= 2o * 16 amu * 1 molecule = 162 + 16 = 18 amu or 18 grams/ mol


Which unit would be used to measure the size of an atom?

The mass of atoms is generally measured in amu (atomic mass units), where 1 amu = 1/12th the mass of an atom of carbon-12. The mass of subatomic particles may also be expressed in amu, or sometimes as the energy equivalent in eV (electron volts). Usually MeV or GeV are required to specify mass... an electron volt is a tiny amount of energy.


What is smaller in terms of size than an atom?

Subatomic particles are smaller than atoms. Subatomic particles are found inside the nucleus of an atom and include protons, neutrons, quarks, and gluons. Protons carry a positive electrical charge while neutrons carry a neutral charge. Inside these protons and neutrons are quarks which are held together by gluons. (1 atom = 0.000000001 meters while 1 quark = 0.000000000000000001 meters) The smallest known particle, however, that has mass is the neutrino.


How do you calculate relative formula mass?

An example of how to get formula mass is shown below with the example of water (H2O). H2O 2 H atoms x 1.01 amu/atom = 2.02 amu 1 O atom x 16.00 amu/atom = 16.00 amu 2.02 amu + 16.00 amu = 18.02 amu

What two subatomic substances have a mass of about 1 amu?

The proton an neutron both have a mass of about 1 amu. (Both have a mass just slightly above 1 amu, and the neutron's mass is slightly larger than that of a proton.)


Which subatomic particle has a charge of 1 and a mass of 1 AMU?

Both one proton and one neutron each has a relative mass of 1 a.m.u.


How do you identify the relative mass the relative charge and location of the three smaller subatomic particles of an atom?

protons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge +1, location in the nucleus. neutrons --- rel. mass 1 amu, rel. charge 0, location in the nucleus. electrons --- rel. mass 0 amu, rel. charge -1, location outside the nucleus.
