How the masses of elementary particles are expressed depends on who you are, or at least on what you do. The obvious way to do it is in straightforward SI units, i.e. in Kg. In these units the proton mass is 1.6726 X 10-27 Kg and the neutron mass is 1.6749 X 10-27 Kg. The people most concerned with particle masses are particle physicists. Einstein's famous equation e = mc2 shows the exchange rate between mass and energy. To most people this is fascinating, but hardly a daily concern. To a scientist working with elementary particles, the interchange between mass and energy is a daily occurrence. To avoid continual finicky calculations, many physicists express particle masses in terms of their energy equivalent. The energy unit used is the electron-Volt, or eV. This is the kinetic energy of an electron which has been accelerated by a potential difference of 1 Volt. The eV is rather small, so most masses are given in MeV or million electron-Volt. The mass of a proton is 938.272 MeV and of a neutron is 939.566 MeV.
No, the designations of hydrogen for the proton and neutron for the neutron do not imply that these two particles are of equal mass. A proton is about 1836 times heavier than a neutron. The terms "hydrogen" and "neutron" were historically used to describe these particles based on their properties and roles in atomic structure, rather than their masses.
Mass ratio proton (neutron)/electron: 1 836
Mass no-the no of proton=no of neutron
The masses of all three particles are different The masses of a proton and the mass of a neutron are very close, however. The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
A proton has a mass slightly less than that of a neutron. A neutron is slightly more massive due to the extra mass of an additional electron.
If a proton would be 1, an electron would be 0.000544. An electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton. A neutron would be 1.001 as a proton is 99.86% the mass of a neutron
the neutral or no charge particle of an atom:it is located in the nucleus;has the same mass as the proton.

A neutron has approximately the same mass as a proton. Electrons have much lower mass.

The mass of a proton is equal to a neutron.
Mass no-the no of proton=no of neutron
The mass of neutron is similar to the mass of proton, but not equal !
