Neutrons have no net charge. They are comprised of two down quarks, each with a charge of -1/3 and one up quark, with a charge of +2/3. These cancel out, for a net charge of zero.
Constrast this with the proton, with one down quark, -1/3, and two up quarks, +2/3. for a net charge of +1.
In 1932, English scientist James Chadwick discovered another particle in the nucleus of atoms. This newparticel, called neutron, was hard to detect because it has no electric charge.

What kind of charge does the protons and neutrons have?
Protons are positively charged (+) and neutrons don't hold any charge.
What are the charged particles in a nucleus?
Protons, which are positively charged. The other particles that are in a nucleus are Neutrons, but Neutrons are not charged, Neutrons don't have a charge.
What is a particle in the nucleus of an atom that does not have a charge?
Neutrons are "neutral;" they have no charge.
What are protons neutrons and electrons hint charge?
Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge
What is the charge of nitrogen-15?
There is no charge. Nitrogen-15 is an isotope, which refers to the number of neutrons. Neutrons do not have a charge.
What kind of charge does the protons and neutrons have?
Protons are positively charged (+) and neutrons don't hold any charge.
What kind of charge do protons neutrons and electrons?
Protons have positive charge, electrons have negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. The heavier particles, protons and neutrons, make up the atomic nucleus, which always has a positive charge.
What is the differencebetweenelectrons neutrons?
Electrons are extremely small compared to neutrons. Electrons have a negative charge and surround the nucleus in a kind of 'cloud'. Neutrons have no charge and are located in the nucleus of an atom.
What kind of charges do protons and electrons have?
Protons have positive charge, electrons have negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. The heavier particles, protons and neutrons, make up the atomic nucleus, which always has a positive charge.
What is the charge of each of the neutrons?
Neutrons do not have a charge.
What charge are neutrons?
neutrons have no charge at all, ther are neutral
What kind of electrical charge does a neutron carry?
The neutrons doesn't carry a charge.They're neutral - that's why they're called "neutrons".A neutron has no charge. That is why it is called a neutron, because it is neutral.
What kind of elicctcal charge do protons elictrons and nutrons have?
Protons have an electrical charge of +1. Neutrons have an electrical charge of 0. Electrons have an electrical charge of -1.
What kind of charge is on the nucleus'?
A nucleus is positively charged (Apart from hydrogen), because it has protons which are positively charged and neutrons which have no charge.
What kind of electrical charge electrons and protons and neutrons have?
e -p +n 0
Do neutrons carry a positive charge?
No. Neutrons have no charge they are neutral.
What king of charge do neutrons have?
Neutrons have a 0 (zero) charge
