Answer:

Electrons are so small that it does not affect the mass of atom .

Step-by-step explanation:

Electrons are much smaller in mass than protons, weighing only 9.11 × 10^-28 grams, or about 1/1800 of an atomic mass unit. Therefore, they do not contribute much to an element's overall atomic mass.
