What mass of protons would be required to just neutralize the charge of 1.5 g of electrons?

my teacher said .0015kg times 1e-/.00091e-27kg times 1pt/1e- times 1.67262e-27 over 1 p

That is what I would do also. But I think you ought to know why that is the method.

figure number electrons in 1.5g:
number electrons: .0015kg/9.11E-31

now figure the mass of the same number of protons:
1.67E-27kg*(.0015/9.11E-31)
