Answer: A 1:1
Explanation:
They both have a magnitude of 1.6 x 10^-19 C.
The ratio of the magnitude of the charge of a proton compared to the magnitude of the charge on an electron is 1:1 option (A) is correct.
It is a basic unit of matter everything is made from the atom. It consists of three small particles in it named electron, proton, and neutron. The electron has a negative charge, a proton has a positive charge, and a neutron has no charge.
We know the charge on the proton:
[tex]\rm Q_p = 1.6 x 10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
And charge on the electron:
[tex]\rm Q_e = -1.6 x 10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
The absolute value of charge on the electron:
[tex]\rm |Q_e| = 1.6 x 10^{-19} \ C[/tex]
[tex]\rm \dfrac{\rm Q_p} {\rm |Q_e| }= \dfrac{1.6 x 10^{-19}}{ 1.6 x 10^{-19}}[/tex]
= 1:1
Thus, the ratio of the magnitude of the charge of a proton compared to the magnitude of the charge on an electron is 1:1 option (A) is correct.
