Particles in an atom’s nucleus that are neutral and have no charge are
A
megatrons.
B
electrons.
C
neutrons.
D
protons.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -neutron, neutral subatomic particle that is a constituent of every atomic nucleus except ordinary hydrogen. It has no electric charge and a rest mass equal to 1.67492749804 × 10−27 kg-marginally greater than that of the proton but 1, 838.68 times greater than that of the electron.

Detailed explanation-2: -Neutrons are a type of subatomic particle with no charge (they are neutral). Like protons, neutrons are bound into the atom’s nucleus as a result of the strong nuclear force.

Detailed explanation-3: -Neutrons are neutral sub atomic particles present in every atom except hydrogen. Neutrons do not carry a negative or a positive charge on them. Therefore they have no net electric charge.

Detailed explanation-4: -Now, the element having no neutron in the nucleus of its atom is hydrogen. Its atomic number is one and it consists of a single proton and exists in diatomic form.

Detailed explanation-5: -Atomic nuclei consist of electrically positive protons and electrically neutral neutrons. These are held together by the strongest known fundamental force, called the strong force. The nucleus makes up much less than . 01% of the volume of the atom, but typically contains more than 99.9% of the mass of the atom.
