There are 6 leptons in total.
1st Gen.
Electron
Electron Neutrino
2nd gen.
Muon
Muon Neutrino
3rd gen.
Tau
Tau Neutrino
They all have a anti-particle too. Like the Positron, Muon Antineutrino, ect.
Leptons are just called that: "leptons". (One example of a lepton is an electron.)
No. A neutron is one of several types of hadron.
There are two types of subatomic particles hypothesized to comprise protons and neutrons. Elementary particles having mass by the types of quarks, leptons and bosons are the first. The second are composite particles, which include baryons, mesons, and leptons.

Quarks and leptons are not elements.
Leptons are a type of subatomic particle, and the science that deals with them is theoretical physics.

A lepton is an elementary particle that does not undergo strong interactions. Two main classes of leptons exist: charged leptons (also known as the electron-like leptons), and neutral leptons (better known as neutrinos). Charged leptons can combine with other particles to form various composite particles such as atoms and positronium, while neutrinos rarely interact with anything, and are consequently rarely observed.
Hadrons are particles composed of quarks. There are two (known) types of hadrons: mesons, which consist of a quark and an antiquark, and baryons, which consist of three quarks (or three antiquarks). Leptons are a separate type of particles. They are not composed of quarks, but are elementary particles in their own right.
No.
They are leptons, which include neutrinos too. There are many types of leptons, the electron, the electron neutrino, the muon, the muon neutrino, the tau, and the tau neutrino. Hope this helps.
Electrons are leptons and fermions.
