Ions have an imbalance of charge, with either an excess or shortage of electrons.
neutrons and protonsbut NOT electrons (the almost have no mass)
Proton Cloud
The proton contributes more even though there are equal numbers of both electrons and protons. The mass of a proton is one thousand times greater than the mass of an electron. Thus, the proton contributes more.
no. an atom is made up of protons neutrons and electrons. protons have a charge of plus one electrons have a charge of minus one neutrons have no charge. therefore the number of protons and electrons must be equal (balancing the charges) for the atom to be neutral. ;)
Protons and neutrons have almost the same mass.

In charge, spin, and strangeness; they are exactly equal. In mass, it would take about 1836 electrons to equal a proton.
It would take about 1836 electrons to equal the mass of 1 proton. This is because the mass of an electron is much smaller than that of a proton.
1836 electrons equal the mass of 1 proton. A proton has a mass of 1.0073 amu, a neutron 1.0087 amu, and an electron 5.486 x 10-4. So, it would take 1836 electrons to equal the mass of 1 proton.
electrons are a 2000th of the mass of a proton/neutron. Because of this very low mass, electrons dont affect the mass number of elements on the periodic table
equal
In the quantity of the electrical charge, the electron and the proton contain equal but opposite charges. In terms of mass, the proton is about equal in mass to 1876 electrons.
A 0 charge. A 0 charge.
Electrons do not fit inside a proton or neutron. Electrons move around the nucleus where the protons and electrons are, and the mount of electrons depends on the atom. For a neutral atom the number of electrons = the number of protons. If that does not hold true the atom will receive a (+) or (-) charge. It will be a (+) if it is missing one electron and a (-) if it has an extra electron. To the guy who wrote that, the question was asking (in size) how many electrons could fit inside a proton relative to its size. The answer is about 1/1836 electrons could fit inside a proton.
the no of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the total no of proton so no of electron is equal to 30.
The number of PROTONs and the number of ELECTRONs are always equal in a neutral atom. Therefore an element with one PROTON will have one ELECTRON and that element will be called Hydrogen.
