Any baryon by definition contains three quarks (or three antiquarks). The neutron, and proton, by the way, are both baryons, and the neutron contains two down quarks and one up quark.
What else can I help you with?
What is the neutron made of?
Neutrons are made of quarks (3 per neutron).
What charges does neutron carry?
A neutron carries no net electric charge since it is made up of three quarks: two down quarks and one up quark. The combination of these quarks results in a neutral overall charge for the neutron.
How does quarks theory compensate spliting of neutron into electron and proton?
Supposedly one of the down quarks of the neutron becomes an up; thus the neutron becomes a proton and an electron (and a neutrino) are emitted.
What statements are true about quarks?
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks
What is a true statement about quarks?
Each proton and neutron is made up of three quarks.
Is a quark bigger than a neutron?
Yes, neutrons are bigger than quarks; it takes three quarks to make a neutron, and the whole is larger than the components. Based on the current understanding of the force between the quarks, we also have an idea of how far apart they are within the neutron.
The number of quarks in a proton or neutron is?
3 in each
What makes up protons neutron and electrons?
Quarks
What are the subtomic particles of a neutron?
A neutron is composed of quarks. It has one "up" quark and two "down" quarks in it. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article, and drawings and more information can be gathered there. Why not surf on over?
What is the elementary particle for neutron?
The elementary particle for a neutron is called a quark. Neutrons are made up of three quarks: two Down quarks and one Up quark.
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.
Is a neutron Bigger than a quark?
Yes, neutrons are bigger than quarks; it takes three quarks to make a neutron, and the whole is larger than the components. Based on the current understanding of the force between the quarks, we also have an idea of how far apart they are within the neutron.
