Atoms consists of protons, neutrons and electrons. If the mass of neutrons and electrons were made half and two times respectively to their actual masses, then the atomic mass of $_{6} C^{12}$

Options:

A . Will remain approximately the same

B . Will become approximately two times

C . Will remain approximately half

D . Will be reduced by 25%

Answer: Option D
:
D

No change by doubling mass of electrons however by reducing mass of neutron to half total atomic mass becomes 6+3 instead of 6+6. Thus reduced by 25%.
