Difference between Electron and Proton
Electron |
Proton |
Negatively charge particle in an atom is known as Electron. | Positively charge particle in an atom is known as proton. |
Electron present in orbits of atom. | Proton present in the nucleus of atom. |
Electron has mass which is
9.1 * 10-³¹ kg. It is less than proton mass. |
Proton has mass which is
1.67 * 10 -²7 It is more than electron mass. |
Electron can be easily added or removed from an atom. | Proton are difficult
To added or removed from atom. |
It has negative charge | It has positive charger. |
Electron denoted as “e”. | Proton denoted as “p”. |
The number of electrons present in their different shell. | The atomic number is equal to the number of proton In an element has in its nucleus. |
Example of electron is :-
The atomic number of sodium (Na) is 11 , so 11 electron present in the atom of sodium in their different shell. |
Example of proton is:-
The atomic number of sodium (Na) is 11 The 11 proton present in nucleus of atom.
