Brief Explanations
In atomic structure, protons and neutrons are both nucleons. The mass of a proton is approximately \(1.6726\times10^{-27}\) kg, and the mass of a neutron is approximately \(1.6749\times10^{-27}\) kg. These values are very close. So, the mass of a neutron is approximately equal to the mass of a proton.
