A neutron has 3 valence quarks. An up quark, and two down quarks. An up quark has a charge of 2/3 and a down quark has a charge of -1/3.
Since 2/3 - 1/3 - 1/3 = 0, neutrons have a neutral charge.
Besides valence quarks, supposedly a hadron can contain an infinite sea of quarks that don't affect the properties of the hadron.

There are how many different quarks?
There are 3 generations of quarks; each generation having 2 different quarks within it. Thus, there are 3 X 2 = 6 types of quarks. Their names are up, down, strange, charm, top, and bottom. Each of these 6 quarks has a unique antiparticle associated with it. Thus, there are in fact 6 X 2 = 12 different quarks in total.
How many quarks have been found to exist?
There are six types of quarks, with three "color charges" each. There are the up, the down, the charm, the strange, the top, and the bottom quarks, each with a "red" charge, a "blue" charge, or a "green" charge. If you want to count antimatter, then there are six antiquarks, each with "anticolor charges." The anticolors are Antigreen, antired, and antiblue. These are each represented by cyan, yellow, and magenta. So, counting antimatter and color charge, there are 36 quarks.
What is true about quarks?
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks.
What is the antonym for proton?
nuetron
Two common quarks are called up with a charge of 23 and down with a charge of -13 protons are made up of 3 quarks How many of each quark would make a proton?
The proton has two up (electrical charge +1/3) quarks and one down (electrical charge -1/3) quark.
How many quarks in a grain of sand?
There are 3 quarks in each neutron. There are 12 neutrons in each proton. There is 1 proton in each atom. There is 36 quarks in each atom. There are about 27 million atoms in each grain of sand. 36 x 27,000,000 = 972,000,000. There are 972 million quarks in a grain of sand.
How many quarks are in protons and neutrons?
Protons and neutrons, like all hadrons, are comprised of three quarks each.
How many and which types of quarks are protons and neutrons made of?
3 each. A proton is composed of 2 up quarks and 1 down quark. A neutron is composed of 1 up quark and 2 down quarks.
How many nuetron are in technetium?
For each isotope the number of neutrons is different. Number of neutrons = Mass number of an Tc isotope - 43
