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.
Which would have more of an affect on the mass of an aluminum atom removing ten electrons or one neutron?
Removing ten electrons would have a larger effect on the mass of an aluminum atom than removing one neutron. Electrons have very little mass compared to protons and neutrons, so removing ten electrons would significantly decrease the mass of the atom. Neutrons contribute roughly the same mass as protons, so removing one neutron would have a smaller impact on the overall mass of the atom.
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?
The neutron has a mass that is nearly equal to the combined mass of a proton and an electron. This is due to the fact that the neutron is slightly heavier than the proton, while the electron has a much smaller mass.
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.
Does a neutron have mass and if so, how does it compare to the mass of other subatomic particles?
Yes, a neutron has mass. The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton, which is another subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom. Neutrons and protons are both much more massive than electrons, which are the smallest subatomic particles.
How many electrons equal the mass of one neutron?
Oh, what a lovely question! You see, electrons are much lighter than neutrons. It takes about 1836 electrons to equal the mass of just one neutron. Isn't it amazing how nature balances everything so beautifully?
What has the smaller mass protons electrons or nutrons?
Electrons have the smallest mass compared to protons and neutrons. The mass of a proton is approximately 1836 times greater than the mass of an electron, and the mass of a neutron is slightly greater than that of a proton.
How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of a proton and neutron?
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
Which particle has a mass that is approximately the same as the mass of a proton?
A neutron has a mass that is approximately the same as a proton, both with a mass of about 1 atomic mass unit.
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.
