neutrons and protons
but NOT electrons (the almost have no mass)
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?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
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.
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.
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
The neutron and the proton have masses close to 1 amu.
Protons and neutrons have the mass of 1 amu.
The largest subatomic particle (by mass) is the proton. The mass of subatomic particles is measured in atomic mass units (amu). The proton has a mass of 1.007 amu, the neutron has a mass of 1 amu, and the electron has a mass of .0005 amu.
1 amu (atomic mass unit) is a unit of mass equal to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. It is used to express the mass of atomic and subatomic particles.
The three particles are protons, neutrons, and electrons. the masses of protons and neutrons both approximately 1 amu (Atomic Mass Unit). The mass of an electron is, in most applications, negligible, but is about 1/1836 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.)
Both one proton and one neutron each has a relative mass of 1 a.m.u.
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.
Subatomic particles are measured in AMU.1 Proton = 1 AMU (Positive Charge [think pro])1 Neutron = 1 AMU (No Charge [think NEUtral])1 Electron = 1/1836 AMU (Negative Charge)
Neutron: Mass: 1,00866491600(43) amu. Charge: neutral James Chadwick, 1932 Electron: Mass: 5,4857990946(22)×10−4 amu. Charge: negative J. J. Thomson, 1897 Proton: Mass: 1,007276466812(90) amu. Charge: positive
Yes, true: the mass of 1 proton is exactly the same as of 1 neutron: 1 a.m.u.
For the particles in atom: Neutron: Mass: 1,00866491600(43) amu. Electron: Mass: 5,4857990946(22)×10−4 amu. Proton: Mass: 1,007276466812(90) amu.
