Interpretation: The proton and neutron have exactly the same mass should be discussed.
Concept Introduction: Every matter is made of chemicals; the importance of chemistry is that it's the study of everything. Chemistry is all about how something interacts to affect the structure, composition, as well as knowing properties of substances.

Answer to Problem 21A
Both, Protons & neutrons, have approximately same mass. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. Protons and neutron both contribute majorly to the mass of atom because protons have positive charge and neutrons have negative charge.
Explanation of Solution
Protons are defined as a positively charged
Sum of number of protons and neutron in an atom is known as the mass number. Nucleon number is another number of mass number. The mass number is represented by the symbol A.
The proton & neutron have like, but not have identical, masses. Protons &neutrons are termed as nucleons as they are present in nucleus.
Mass of protons,
Mass of neutrons,
The combination of the protons and the neutrons makes up the bulk of the mass of the atom. Electrons have negative charge and protons have the positive charge. Both, contribute greatly to the chemical properties of atom.
The number of protons in an atom is termed as atomic number. Total number of protons and electrons are termed as mass number. By using the mass number and atomic number you can calculate the number of protons and neutrons.
