The second option - electrons are the subatomic particles with the smallest mass.

Both protons and electrons have charge (protons are positive and electrons are negative)

Protons and neutrons both equal 1 amu (atomic mass unit), whereas electrons weigh about 1/1000 amu

Electrons orbit around the nucleus, whereas protons and neutrons are inside of the nucleus

And for the last option, I already answered it
