Neutrons are neutral particles, so they donâ??t change the charge of an atom. They do however, change the Atomic Mass.

Which particles are found in the nucleus of the atom?
They're called nucleons. The two types of nucleons are protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged nucleons and determine, in an atom, what element that atom is. Neutrons have no charge and just supposedly add mass to an atom.
Which of the following subatomic particles are located in the nucleus of the atom?
The protons and the neutrons are located in the nucleus of an atom.
How many protons are in the Hg atom?
The element mercury (Hg) has 80 protons and 80 neutrons. It exists in several different isotopes which have different numbers of neutrons, however, the average number of neutrons in a mercury atom is 121. (The atomic weight is 200.59 which would require 80 protons and 120.59 neutrons, although of course every atom has only whole numbers of neutrons, you only get fractions because you are getting an average of different isotopes.)
How many neutrons are in one atom?
The number of neutrons depends on the atom. In general, mass number = atomic number + number of neutrons.
What is the number of neutrons in an atom affects the atomic what?
The number of neutrons in an atom can affect the atomic mass of an atom.
What do neutrons add to an atom?
Neutrons add MASS to an atom.
What is the mass of an isotope of this atom that has 2 neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What is the mass number of an isotope of this atom that has neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What do you add together to get an atoms mass?
The protons and the neutrons, because those are the only particles in the atom that contain quarks.
What is the number of an atom with 5 protons and 7 neutrons?
To the find the mass number of an atom you add the protons and neutrons. Meaning that the mass number of this atom is 12.
What is mass number of an isotope of this atom that has 2 neutrons?
It is 3 because you have to add the neutrons and the protons.
What are particles in an atom called that have no charge?
Neutrons have a neutral charge. They do not add or subtract from the overall charge like protons and electrons do. They do,however, add mass to the atom.
What atom is the only atom that has neutrons?
Actually, all atoms have neutrons except for one, and that is the normal hydrogen atom, which is only comprised of a single proton and electron.
Is An electron is the only part of an atom that may leave or join an atom?
No. It's the only part of an atom that may leave or join an atom easily. Nuclear fusion and fission add or remove other particles like neutrons and protons.
The protons and neutrons in an atom add up to give the atom's?
Mass number/Atomic Mass
What is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons?
If you add the number of protons to the number of neutrons in an atom, you have calculated that atom's atomic mass.
An atom has 14 protons and 13 neutrons what it its atomic mass?
27 add protons and neutrons
