Size of Proton and electron

A proton is an atomic particle which is positively charged and has a mass

which is about 1,836 times greater than the mass of the electron. The

electron on the other hand is negatively charged and is actively involved in

chemical reactions.

A proton being about trillionths of a millimeter wide, and represented by a

basketball means the electron which has a diameter of 10⁻¹⁷ is much

smaller can be represented by a grain of sand.
