Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What type of charge does a neutron have?
A
Positive
B
Negative
C
Neutral
D
None of the above
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 have a neutral electric charge (neither negative nor positive) and have slightly more mass than positively charged protons. “Free” neutrons are those no longer confined inside a nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -A neutron has zero charge which means it is a neutral particle. Neutron is denoted by a symbol “n” which has a mass of. 67493 × 10-27 kg .

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Hence, Neutrons do not have a positive or negative charge. These particles are neutral or chargeless.
