Question

What is the electric charge of a Neutron?

Answer 1

Neutron:

1. In 1932, J. Chadwick discovered the neutron by bombarding a thin sheet of Beryllium with alpha particles.
2. Neutron binds with protons by a strong nuclear force.

Neutron charge:

1. A neutron has zero charge which means it is a neutral particle.
2. Neutron is denoted by a symbol “n” which has a mass of $1.67493\times {10}^{-27}\mathrm{kg}$.
3. The number of protons and neutrons present in a nucleus determines its mass.
4. The relative size of the neutron is larger than the protons and nucleus.
