What has a mass slightly less than that of a 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.


How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of the neutron?

The electron has only a small fraction of the mass of the neutron. The neutron is about 1837 times as massive as the electron. The proton is just a tiny bit less massive as the neutron, so the proton and neutron are said to have about the same amount of mass.

Which particle has a mass that is approximately the same as the mass of a proton?

the neutral or no charge particle of an atom:it is located in the nucleus;has the same mass as the proton.


How does the mass of an electron compare to that of a neutron?

The nucleus is far more massive than the electron cloud. The mass of the electron cloud is almost negligible compared to that of the nucleus.


Does electron weigh more or less then proton and neutron?

Protons are made up of Subatomic Particles, in this case a Proton Atom is made up of two Up quarks, and one Down quark. The mass of an Up Quark is 2.4 MeV/c2 and the mass of a Down quark is 4.8 MeV/c2. Electrons are still in the Subatomic Particle Table, an Electron is a type of Lepton. An Electron's mass 0.511 MeV/c2 which is a lot less than a Proton, even less than a Up quark itself (the lightest quark). In most cases when talking about Atoms and their mass Electrons don't normally have an effect on their mass, only the Neutrons and Protons in the Atom. This should answer the Question.


What subatomic particle has the less mass?

The electron is the subatomic particle with the least mass. It has a mass of about 1/1836 of a proton or neutron.


Why isnt the mass of the electron included in the mass of an atom on the periodic table?

the mass of electron is very less compared to that of a proton or a neutron it is 1/1800 the mass of 1 proton and therefore it is negligible and not included.


What particle has the same mass as a neutron?

A positron, a neutron, a single proton, and a single electron are all considered to be equal in mass, however, a positron is generally referred to as an "anti-electron", as it travels at the velocity of light (like an electron), an has a positive charge (+1e, as opposed to an electron, which carries a negative charge, i.e: -1e).


What is the product of electron capture decay of xenon isotope 129xe?

Interestly, a neutron is a proton + an electron. So, when an atom captures an electron, one of its protons becomes a neutron. Now it has 1 more neutron, but 1 less proton; making the it an atom of the element with atomic number 1 less than the original atom. The total number of protons and neutrons remains the same. Xe- 129 + e-1 = I- 129


Which weighs more proton neutron electron?

A Neutron weighs more than a proton. Than an electron. A Neutron weighs the most, and an electron weighs the least. A proton is in the middle. Although there are these three sub atomic particles, an atom is made up of 99 percent empty space! But from greatest to least in mass, it goes neutron, proton, then electron!
