Neutrons are neutral sub atomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom (along with positively charged protons). Electrons are negatively charged sub atomic particles that are revolving around the nucleus of an atom.
The mass of neutron is 1 amu and the mass of electron is about 1837 times less than that of neutron.
An electron has a negative charge to it, whilst a neutron has a neutral charge to it.
An electron bears a negative charge, a neutron has no charge.A neutron is about 2,000 times as massive as an electron.Neutrons exist in atomic nuclei, electrons orbit nuclei.
The charge on an electron is never equal to the charge on a neutron. An electron carries one negative charge and a neutron has no net charge.
An electron has approximately 1/1840th the mass of a neutron.
Electron capture is the absorption of an electron by an atomic nucleus if that nucleus is neutron poor. An electron is captured, usually from an inner electron shell of that atom, and it will convert a proton in the nucleus into a neutron. We know that a neutron is converted into a proton and an electron in neutron decay, so it might be looked at as something of an opposite nuclear reaction where a proton and an electron combine to form a neutron.

Only the neutron number is different, same proton and electron number.
No, a neutron is about 1836 times the mass of an electron
Both an electron and a neutron are subatomic particles found in an atom. They both have a negative charge, but a neutron has no charge.
The charge on an electron is never equal to the charge on a neutron. An electron carries one negative charge and a neutron has no net charge.
The proton has a positive charge. The electron has a negative charge. And the neutron has a no charge.
An electron has approximately 1/1840th the mass of a neutron.
an electron is much lighter than a proton or neutron.
Electron capture is the absorption of an electron by an atomic nucleus if that nucleus is neutron poor. An electron is captured, usually from an inner electron shell of that atom, and it will convert a proton in the nucleus into a neutron. We know that a neutron is converted into a proton and an electron in neutron decay, so it might be looked at as something of an opposite nuclear reaction where a proton and an electron combine to form a neutron.
The electron has only a small fraction of the mass of the neutron. The neutron is about 1837 times as massive as the electron. The proton is just a tiny bit less massive as the neutron, so the proton and neutron are said to have about the same amount of mass.
