Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall that the neutron is a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons.
Understand that electric charge is a fundamental property of particles, and particles can be positively charged, negatively charged, or neutral (no charge).
Recognize that protons carry a positive charge, electrons carry a negative charge, and neutrons carry no net electric charge.
Therefore, the neutron is electrically neutral, meaning it has no positive or negative charge.
Conclude that the best description of the electric charge of a neutron is 'Neutral (no charge)'.
