no charge, shells
B
positive charge, nucleus
C
neutral, no charge, nucleus
D
negative charge, shells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. These free neutrons are produced by nuclear fission and fusion processes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The particle that has no charge and is located in the nucleus of an atom is called the neutron. Neutrons are neutral subatomic particles that make up the nucleus together with the positively charged protons.

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 . The number of protons and neutrons present in a nucleus determines its mass.

Detailed explanation-4: -The nucleus is a small, dense region at the center of the atom. It consists of positive protons and neutral neutrons, so it has an overall positive charge.
