The answer depends on what you compare them with. Compared to protons, they do not.
An element's atomic mass does not include the mass of its electrons. Electrons have such a small mass compared to protons and neutrons that they are not typically included in calculations of atomic mass.
because the electrons plus the nuetrons equal the mass
depends on the electrons
Yes, electrons have a mass of 9.1094 X 10−31 kg.
electrons are the same as protons
The mass of electrons is not excluded from atomic mass. The mass number of an isotope of an element excludes electrons because it is the sum of protons and neutrons.From Wikipedia, "The atomic mass (ma) is the mass of a specific isotope, most often expressed in unified atomic mass units. The atomic mass is the total mass of protons, neutrons and electrons in a single atom."
electrons have no mass
The sum of masses of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Electrons are very light. Protons are approx. 1800 X the mass (rest mass to be presice). Neutrons are about the same mass a protons. So the mass of all the electrons has little effect.
The mass of 5.1018 electrons is 45,546 910 75.10-13 kg.
no electrons have mass, about 1/1800 that of a proton or neutron.
No, the change in mass is generally not significant when an object gains or loses electrons because electrons have a very small mass compared to protons and neutrons in the nucleus. The change in mass from gaining or losing electrons is usually negligible.
