Solution

Electrons and Protons:

  1. Electrons are negatively charged particles.
  2. Protons are positively charged particles.

Mass of proton=1.6×10-27kgMass of electron=9.1×10-31kgMass of protonMass of electron=1.6×10-279.1×10-31=1.8×103

Hence, the approximate ratio of the mass of proton and electron is 1.8×103.
