What particle or particles carry virtually all the mass (weight) of any atom?

Virtually all of the mass of an atom is carried by the proton and the neutron. The electron has very, very little mass relative to these two particles.


What subatomic particle or particles contributes the most to the mass of the atom?

These particles are protons and neutrons.


What particles have the most mass?

In the atom the heaviest particle is the neutron but the proton is close.


What is a subatomic particles with almost no mass?

The electron is the lightest particle in the atom.


What particle determines the mass along with the protons of an atom?

Neutrons are the particles that contribute to the mass of an atom, along with protons. Neutrons have a similar mass to protons, but they do not have a charge. The number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus determines its atomic mass.


Which sub atomic particle makes up most of the mass of atom?

These particles are proton and neutron.


Which atomic particle has the least mass?

An electron has the least mass among the three fundamental particles of an atom, which includes protons and neutrons.


What are the Example of a proton and neutron?

A proton is a positively charged particle in the center of an atom. A neutron is another particle in the center of an atom that has no charge, but still has mass. Each particle, sometimes called a subatomic particle, has a mass of one AMU. The sum of these is the mass of one atom of an element. Electrons, the particles orbiting the nucleus, where protons and neutrons reside, are not taken into account in massing because they are so small.


The particle in the nucleus of an atom with no charge?

It is called the nucleus and has a mass unit number of one.


Which in an atom has the least mass in an atom?

Which particle? The electron.


A particle that has mass and a positive electrical charge?

The particle you are referring to is likely a proton. Protons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom and have a positive electrical charge. They also have mass, although their mass is much smaller than everyday objects.


What is the particle of an atom that carries a negative charge?

The electron. There are three particles in an atom , they are:- Proton ; carries a charge of (+), and has an arbitrary mass of '1' Neutron ; carries no charge (o) , and has an arbitrary mass of '1' The above two particles are found the the nucleus of an atom, and are collectively named 'nucleons'. Electron ; carries a charge of (-), and has an arbitrary mass of 1/1860. It is found outside the nucleus of an atom.
