A proton is heavier than an electron.
MASS(kg):
Proton - 1.67 × 10-27kg
Neutron - 1.67 × 10-27kg
Electron - 9.11 × 10-31 kg
*A neutron is about .1% heavier than a proton.
This statement is incorrect. A proton has a mass that is approximately 1836 times greater than that of an electron.
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.
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.
The ratio of a proton's rest mass to an electron's rest mass is 1836.15267247:1. For more information, follow the link below.
During electron capture, an electron and proton combine and are converted to a neutron.
By sheer size, I would assume MUCH larger. But through weight, the proton is much heavier compared to an electron. On any element, the atomic number is the weight of the nuetrons and protons. The weight of electrons is so small and insignificant, it is usual not looked on at the highschool level. And has no effect on the molar mass.
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.

The electron, the neutron and the proton are the building blocks of the atom. And of the three, the electron is far and away the lightest. The neutron is slightly heavier than the proton, and either particle is over 1800 times more massive than our little electron.
The mass of the proton is 1840 times more massive than an electron.
Proton has a greater mass than the electron.
The neutron is the largest of the particles mentioned. Compared to the proton, it has an additional weight of 1.293 MeV.
No. While the proton has the opposite charge of the electron, the proton will not flow from atom to atom like the electron does because the strong atomic force holding the proton in the nucleus is much more powerful than the electromagnetic force.
all elements have an atomic weight, because all of them have electrons and protons, and every electron and proton have a weight.
