    Which of the following statements is false?

    A)  Neutron has the highest mass among the fundamental particles.

    B)  The mass of an electron is negligible.

    C)  The value of e/m is the highest for a proton.  

    D)  Charge of a neutron is zero.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Mass of a proton is \[1.0073\,\,a.m.u\].The magnitude of charge for an electron and proton are the same. But as proton is heavier than electron, its e/m is less than electron. The e/m of electron is maximum of all the fundamental particles as its mass is minimum.
