Best Answer

The mass of an electron is 9.1095x10^-28 grams and the mass of a proton is 1.6726x10^-24 grams. So while both are very small relative to our macroscopic world, protons are nearly 2000 times larger than electrons.

Which has least mass neutron protron electron or nucleus?

Well, that's kinda a trick question because an electron is pure energy. An electron particle is also the smallest of the 4, so its the electron (eventhough an electron is a weichtless particle such as a graviton or magneton! Hope I helped!!

Is The Mass Of An Electron Is Equal To The Mass Of A Neutrons?

No. The mass of a neutron is far, far, far greater than the mass of an electron. In fact, the mass of a neutron is approximately about 1840 times greater than the mass of an electron. The particle that has exactly the same mass as an electron is its antiparticle, the positron.
