Interpretation : The charge and mass of a neutron and the charge and mass of a proton are to be compared.
Concept Introduction : Protons, neutrons, and electrons are the three different types of subatomic particles.
Answer to Problem 41A
The mass of protons and neutrons are the same mass which is 1 amu but differs in the charge.
The protons have a positive charge while the neutrons have no charge in them.
Explanation of Solution
The positively charged subatomic particles known as protons were first found in the nucleus by Eugen Goldstein.
James Chadwick first identified the neutrally charged subatomic particles known as neutrons as being present in the nucleus.
The mass of protons and neutrons are the same mass which is 1 amu but differs in the charge.
The protons have a positive charge while the neutrons have no charge in them.
