what are neutrons?

Answer 1

An electrically neutral subatomic particle in the baryon family, having a mass 1,839 times that of the electron, stable when bound in an atomic nucleus, and having a mean lifetime of approximately 1.0 × 103 seconds as a free particle

Answer 2

In physics, the neutron is a subatomic particle with no net electric charge and a mass of 939.573 MeV/c² (1.6749 × 10-27 kg, slightly more than a proton). Its spin is ½. Its antiparticle is called the antineutron. The neutron, along with the proton, is a nucleon.

The nucleus of most atoms (all except the most common isotope of hydrogen, protium, which consists of a single proton only) consists of protons and neutrons. The number of neutrons determines the isotope of an element. (For example, the carbon-12 isotope has 6 protons and 6 neutrons, while the carbon-14 isotope has 6 protons and 8 neutrons.) Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same atomic number but different masses due to a different number of neutrons.

A neutron is classified as a baryon, and consists of two down quarks and one up quark.

Answer 3

They are sub-atomic particles that are found in the nucleus of a atom. They have no overall charge. They contribute towards the mass of a atom. They are equal number of neutrons as there are protons in the nucleus of a atom.

Answer 4

A subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom which does not have a charge.

Answer 5

Neutral particles found in the nucleus of an atom. These are the largest particles in an atom.

Answer 6

The opposite of protons, caused by splitting matter, ie nuclear fission.
