A neutron has a neutral charge. The atom itself consists of protons neutrons and electrons. Neutrons do not serve much purpose except holding the protons in the nucleus and making different isotopes. An atom can become positively charged if it looses an electron which originally carried a negative charge. If that atom were to gain an electron it would become negatively charged.
