After years of experimenting he came …

…and is 1840 times heavier then an electron. The proton is what remains when a hydrogen atom is stripped of an electron.

In conclusion an atom is made of three parts electrons, protons and the neutron, all of these are equally important and a necessity to complete an atom.
