Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.

Detailed explanation-2: -A proton being positively charged is just a convention. It is not the usual “positive” you think about. We found out that there can be three kinds of charges-two of which attract to each other and the third is “neutral” to the. So, we decided to name them positive, negative and neutral.
