Re: Mass of Electrons
I believe all electrons have the same mass. In J.J. Thomson's experiment involving cathode rays, he found that electrons were the same regardless of the metal that was used for the cathode. The mass of an electron I think is approximately 9.109x10^-31 kg or 5.489x10^-4 amu.

Re: Mass of Electrons
The mass of an electron is always constant at 9.10938356 × 10-31 kilograms and corresponds to a resting energy of 0.115 MeV.
Re: Mass of Electrons
I believe it is always the same and it was a constant listed in the test sheet last week.
