Both have equal and opposite charges.
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
This statement is incorrect. A proton has a mass that is approximately 1836 times greater than that of an electron.
Mass ratio proton (neutron)/electron: 1 836
Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.Neutron, proton, electron.
An electron will not decay into a proton by any means.
A proton is bigger than electron
A proton is bigger than electron
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
remove either a proton or electron OR add a proton or electron...
An electron is 1/1,836 of a proton.
A proton and an electron have exactly opposite charges. If you take the charge of a proton as +1, then an electron has a charge of -1.
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
The mass of an electron is approximately 1⁄1836 of a proton. Thus as hydrogen is made of one proton and one electron, hydrogen is 1837 times heavier than an electron.
an electron has way less mass than a proton.
