The electron is the lightest particle in the list. A proton is 1836 times more massive than an electron. Neutrons are just slightly more massive than a proton, and an alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons.

What is the lightest particle in the universe?
An Electron.
What is the lightest subatomic particle of an atom?
electrons the smallest but weigh as much as protons neutrons weigh nothing ~Kay
What particle has almost no mass?
The lightest subatomic particle is the electron.
Can a charged particle move through a magnetic field without experiencing any force?
No, the particle has the following forces f= qvB= - qv.B + qvxB, the first force is a scalar force when the particle is parallel to the field and teh second force is avector force when teh particle is perpendicular to the field. If the particle is not neither parallel or perpendicular to the field, both the scalar and vector forces will be experiencd.
Is the electron or the neutron or the proton lighter?
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.
What is a tiny particale?
A tiny Particle is Called an Atom.
Does grains mean the same thing as particle?
yes grain mean the same thing as particale
What is the lightest particle in the universe?
An Electron.
What is the light est subatomic particle?
The lightest subatomic particle is the electron.
What subatomic particle has the less mass?
In the atom the electron is the lightest.
Are the protons positively charged and the lightest subatomic particle?
Protons are positively charged but are not the lightest. They are about 2000 times the weight of electrons.
What subatomic particles are the lightweights of the atom?
The lightest particle in the atom is the electron.
What subatomic particle Has the smallest relative mass?
In the atom the electron is the lightest.
What is a subatomic particles with almost no mass?
The electron is the lightest particle in the atom.

What is the second lightest chemical element?
From gaseous elements Helium is the 2nd lightest. From solid elements Potassium is the 2nd lightest. From liquid elements Mercury is the 2nd lightest AND heaviest. (only two liquid elements: Bromium is the lightest)
Which of the subatomic particle is the lightest?
Electron, lightest stable subatomic particle known. It carries a negative charge, which is considered the basic unit of electric charge. The rest mass of the electron is 9.109 × 10−31 kg, which is only 1/1,840the mass of a proton. An electron is therefore considered nearly massless in comparison with a proton or a neutron, and the electron mass is not included in calculating the mass number of an atom.
