A neutron has no charge (neutron-neutral). It is simply there for weight.


How do elements of the periodic table interact?

Listed in order of atmoic weight. Electrons have the majority of weight in the atom (proton, neutron, electron.)


What is the difference between the three subatomic particles?

The main differences are proton and neutron are in the nucleus, electrons are outside of the nucleus. The weight of an electron is between a hundred and a thousand times less of that of a proton and neutron and the charge on a proton is positive, neutron is neutral and electron is negative


How do you determine the number of neutron in any element?

Find the weight on the periodic table then subtract the proton numbers.


How many neutron does the element xenon contain?

What happens to an atom in terms of atomic mass and weight when it loses one particle?

If an atom looses an electron, neither the atomic mass nor atomic weight change appreciatively. If it looses a proton or neutron, both atomic mass and atomic weight decrease by one and it becomes an atom of a different element (on loss of a proton), or a different isotope of the same element (upon loss of a neutron).


The neutral or no charge particle of an atomit is located in the nucleushas the same masss as the proton?

The neutron.


Why neutron is call neutron?

The neutron is called the neutron because it it electrically neutral, hence the neu- prefix


Is a neutron positive charged?

No. A neutron carries no charge.


What is a name of an atom that has a positive or negative neutron?

There is no such thing as a "positive neutron" or a "negative neutron". A neutron is always neutral.
