Protons have a larger mass, but it is unclear which (if either) have a larger radius. The electron does not seem to have ANY measurable radius.

How many times is the electron larger than an proton?

I believe it is reversed with a electron being smaller its mass is 1/1840 or 0.05% of a proton's. In fact the mass is so small we ignore it in calculation in stiochiometry. See here: http://www.physicsforums.com/archive/index.php/t-72615.html

How big is a proton compared to an electron?

A proton is about 1,836 times heavier than an electron. In terms of size, the proton is also larger than an electron. However, the exact size of both particles is extremely small, with the proton being about 100,000 times smaller than an atom.

Which atom is larger nitrogen or carbon?

Nitrogen is larger than carbon. Nitrogen has one more electron and proton than carbon, resulting in a larger size due to increased electron-electron repulsion.


Is the the mass and charge of electrons compare to that of protons?

The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton. An electron has a charge of -1, while a proton has a charge of +1.


Is the proton smaller than the electron?

Actually every proton has different size in different nucleus. But in general, Proton, 1x10-15 m or "a diameter of approximately one-millionth of a nanometer". The electron, the diameter is less than 1x10-18 m. Likewise, The diameter of an electron is less than 1/1000 the diameter of a proton.
