Which part of the atom is found in the center of the atom and has no electric charge?

A neutron has no electrical charge and is found in the nucleus of an atom.Alternate wording to an inexact question:If you are referring to the nucleus of an atom, there must always be at least one proton. So there has to always be a positive charge. The other component, the neutron, has no charge. The electrons orbiting the nucleus have the negative charge. So if no electrical charge is found in the nucleus, it is not an atom and therefore not a nucleus.


Where is the proton located in an atom?

In the nucleus of the atom, along with neutrons. The electrons are found around the nucleus. If the atom was the size of a Baseball stadium, the nucleus would be the size of a baseball! Most of the space in an atom is taken up by the electron cloud which surrounds the nucleus. That is why atoms are actually mostly empty space.
