∙ 11y agoIf you compare the mass of a positron to an electron, or of a proton to an anti-proton, and so forth, the mass is the same, even though the charge is reversed. Negative charge does not mean negative mass, it has no bearing on the mass.

∙ 11y agoProtons and electrons are particles that account for the charge of the mass. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge. The net charge of an object is determined by the balance of these two particles.
An electron is an elementary particle that carries a negative charge and has a very small mass.
Yes, the neutron has a negative charge and a mass that is smaller than the mass of a proton.
An electron has a negative charge and a mass close to 0 amu (atomic mass unit).
You're probably thinking of electrons, whose mass is much smaller than nucleons but also have a negative charge. Indeed, the electron has the smallest amount of mass of any particle with a negative charge.
When an object receives a negative charge, there is no change in its mass. Mass is a fundamental property of matter that is not affected by the addition or removal of charge. The negative charge simply alters the distribution of electrons on the object's surface.
The mass of an object does not change when it receives a negative charge. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, and adding or removing charge does not alter the amount of matter present.
Mass and charge are not connected. Negative charge is the charge carried by an electron.
Protons and electrons are particles that account for the charge of the mass. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge. The net charge of an object is determined by the balance of these two particles.

Yes, the neutron has a negative charge and a mass that is smaller than the mass of a proton.
When an object has 'no' charge, it is neutral.
Increasing the speed of an object does not affect that object's mass. Mass is an intrinsic property of an object and remains constant regardless of its speed.
Changing the shape of an object does not affect its mass. The mass of an object remains constant regardless of its shape because mass is a measure of the amount of matter present in an object. Changing the shape may affect the object's volume and density, but not its mass.
Mass does not directly affect the shape of an object. The shape of an object is determined by its structure and composition. However, the mass of an object does affect its weight, which can influence how the object interacts with other objects or its environment.
It has no direct affect on the speed of an object. It does affect the energy content of the speeding object.
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while charge is a fundamental property of matter that determines how it interacts with electric and magnetic fields. Mass is a scalar quantity that gives an object inertia, while charge can be positive or negative and determines the strength of the electromagnetic force on an object.
