| The particle with the smallest charge is called an electron. The mass of the electron is 9.1 * 10 (in – 31 degrees) kg. Electron charge – 1.6 * 10 (-19 degrees) Cl.
An electron has mass, it is so small that, for example, it is not taken into account in chemistry, but for physics this is an important parameter:
1. An electron roughly weighs 0.000548579909067 (14) (9) (2) atomic units of mass.
2. The mass of an electron is equal to 1/1838 of the mass of the lightest of the existing atoms – the hydrogen atom.
3. The energy that is contained in the mass of an electron is 0.000 511 GeV. This is approximately 200,000 times more energy than a single green photon carries.
