What is the ratio of a proton to the mass of a neutron?
The mass of a proton and neutron are pretty close. So the ratio will be roughly 1 to 1 (or 1:1). The neutron is heavier and if memory serves it is exactly the mass of an electron heavier than a proton. Note it takes around 1820 electron to equal the mass of one proton.
Which is larger 12 mg or 12 kg?
12 kilogrammes is larger in mass than 12 milligrammes by a factor of 1,000,000.
How many times larger is Egypt than Wyoming how did you figure it out?
The land mass of Egypt is - 386,662 square miles The land mass of Wyoming is - 97,814 square miles To determine how many times larger Egypt is then Wyoming you divide: 386,662/97,814 = 3.953 Egypt is 3.953 times larger than Wyoming
Does the larger item always have the greater mass?
No. If the density of the item is less, the mass may be less, even if the object is larger. Cannon ball and a beach ball. Low density beach ball has far less mass than the VERY dense cannon ball, even though the beach ball is larger.
What is atomic mass of carbon fourteen?
slightly more than 14, carbon 12 has an atomic mass of 12 by definition, so 1 atomic mass = the sum of the mass of a proton neutron and electron divided by 2 neutrons are slightly heavier than the combined mass of an electron and proton carbon 14 has a higher percentage neutrons than carbon 12 so it is heavier relative to the number of particles in it's nucleus(14)
Which is bigger a proton or neutron?
The neutron is 0.16% larger than a proton.
Does electrons have the smallest mass?
not necessarily it has the smallest charge
Are the mass of all the electrons of an atom less than the mass of one neutron?
Yes, it is absolutely true.
Which subatomic particle is nearly equal to the masses of the other two subatomic particles added together?
You may be referring to neutrons, protons and electrons. The neutron is heavier than the proton, but the difference is more like two electrons than one.
What is a neutron in an atom?
The neutron is a subatomic particle with no net electric charge and a mass slightly larger than that of a proton.
Where is the most of the atoms mass located?
Approximately all of the atom's mass is in the nucleus. The electrons contribute almost zero.No atom has more than 100 electrons, but eachproton or neutron in the nucleushas the mass of more than 1,800 electrons.
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.
Protons are so much more massive than electrons that you can neglect the mass of electrons when determining the mass of an atom?
Atomic mass is based on the proton and neutron. For the most part the mass of an electron is infinitesimally small.
Where is almost all of the mass in an atom is located?
Approximately all of the atom's mass is in the nucleus. The electrons contribute almost zero.No atom has more than 100 electrons, but eachproton or neutron in the nucleushas the mass of more than 1,800 electrons.
What two subatomic substances have a mass of about 1 amu?
The proton an neutron both have a mass of about 1 amu. (Both have a mass just slightly above 1 amu, and the neutron's mass is slightly larger than that of a proton.)
Is a neutron star or a black hole bigger?
A black hole has more mass than a neutron star, but if you are comparing volume it would depend on the mass of the black hole. A neutron star is estimated to be about 14 miles in diameter, which is larger than the event horizon of a black hole up to about 3.8 times the mass of the sun. A more massive black hole will be larger.
Why the density of nucleus is larger than surrounding electrons in an atom?
The lightest nuclei is composed of one proton whose mass is around 1836 times the one electron mass. Any atom is composed of a nucleus (composed of protons and neutrons and the neutron is heavier than the proton) and surrounded by a number of electrons that are equal to the number of protons). So,alwaysthe nucleus is heavier than the mass of the surroundingelectrons.
