Yes. Neutrons can change through radiation. The number of neutrons determines the isotope of the atom.
Neutron number is not conserved in radioactive decay processes. During beta decay, a neutron may convert into a proton, an electron (beta particle), and an antineutrino. This results in a change in neutron number.
The number of neutrons has no influence on the number of the atomic number. Only protons do, and they only change in nuclear chemistry.
Atomic number = Number of protons. So addition of neutron has no affect on the atomic number.Isotopes of the same element are formed by the change in neutrons.
Mass no-the no of proton=no of neutron
A neutron does not have a charge; it is electrically neutral. However, it can undergo a type of change known as beta decay, in which it transforms into a proton by emitting an electron and an antineutrino. This process alters the atomic number of the element, effectively changing it into a different element.

You calculate the number of neutron in the nucleus of an atom by : atomic mass - atomic number = neutron number. :) hope this helps

The neutron number of an atom typically refers to the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It is not common for the neutron number to be a decimal value, as neutrons are whole particles. It is possible that the value provided is indicating an average or approximate neutron number for a specific isotope.
The end result of beta- decay is that a neutron is converted into a proton, increasing the atomic number while keeping the atomic mass number the same. The end result of beta+ decay is that a proton is converted into a neutron, decreasing the atomic number while keeping the atomic mass number the same.
Proton count remains the same, but neutron count can vary
The atomic number of uranium is 92, so its atoms have 92 protons in their nuclei. If uranium-235 absorbs a neutron, it would then have the mass number of 236. The number of neutrons is the mass number minus the atomic number, so the number of neutrons in the uranium-236 nuclei would be 236-92=144.
yes
Neutron has no charge
