The mass of a proton is approximately the same as a mass of a 

• positron
• electron
• neutron
• beta particle

Compared to the mass and charge of an electron, a proton has

• more mass same charge
• less mass same charge
• more mass opposite charge
• less mass no charge

Which statement correctly describes the structure of an atom?

• Positively charged nucleus surrounded by positively charged electrons
• Positively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons
• Negatively charged nucleus surrounded by negatively charged electrons
• Negatively charged nucleus surrounded by positively charged electrons

In the diagram shown above, the green particle represents the:

• Proton
• Electron
• Neutron
• Nucleus
