  • A neutron is the subatomic particle present with the proton in the nucleus of an atom.
  • It carries no charge and has a mass slightly greater than a proton.

  • It carries a charge equal to an electron but is opposite in sign.

Thus a Neutron is a subatomic particle with no charge and unit mass.
