Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following are located in the nucleus and have a neutral charge?
A
Electron
B
Proton
C
Neutron
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Atoms of all elements-except for most atoms of hydrogen-have neutrons in their nucleus. Unlike protons and electrons, which are electrically charged, neutrons have no charge-they are electrically neutral.

Detailed explanation-2: -Miller, a UW physics professor, has found that the neutron has a negative charge both in its inner core and its outer edge, with a positive charge sandwiched in between to make the particle electrically neutral.

Detailed explanation-3: -Neutrons are always located with protons. Both protons and neutrons are collectively known as nucleons. Thus neutrons are located with the protons inside the atom.

Detailed explanation-4: -Neutrons are a type of subatomic particle with no charge (they’re neutral).
