Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Electrons are the smallest subatomic particles with a mass of 0.0005 atomic mass units (amu) and a negative charge. Ions are atoms or molecules that have a net electrical charge due to the loss or gain of electrons. Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nucleus. Neutrons are subatomic particles with a mass of 1 amu and no electrical charge. Protons are subatomic particles with a mass of 1 amu and a positive charge.
