∙ 15y ago1. A Proton has a positive charge. (The neutron has no electrostatic charge.)
2. Protons (the number of them) are the defining characteristic of an element. A given element can have different numbers of neutrons. (Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons and different numbers of neutrons.) For more information on the proton and neutron, use the links to the Wikipedia articles that have been provided.

What 2 parts of an atom have the same mass?
Proton and neutron have similar mass, but not identical.
How many proton neutron electrons in a hydrogen isotope with mass of 2?
1 proton and 1 neutron is needed because the 2 in hydrogen 2 refers to the atomic mass and protons and neutron have a mass of about 2 daltons each.
What is made up of a neutron a proton and a surrounding cloud of orbiting electrons?
A hydrogen-2 (deuterium) atom has a proton, a neutron, and ONE orbiting electron.
The mass of a neutron is nearly equal to the mass of what other subatomic particle?
No, an alpha particle is the nucleus of a normal helium atom - 2 protons + 2 neutrons. Therefore, an alpha particle has approximately 4 times the mass of a proton or neutron.No, an alpha particle is the nucleus of a normal helium atom - 2 protons + 2 neutrons.

An alpha particle.
What features do electrons protons and neutrons have?
The two important characteristics of a neutron are its mass and charge. These are described below. 1) Mass of neutron. The mass of a neutron is equal to mass of a proton. The relative mass of neutron in 1 u. the absolute mass of a neutron is 1.6 * 10^-24 gram. 2) Charge of neutron. Neutron has no charge. It is electrically neutral. The two important characteristics of a Proton are its mass and charge. These are described below. 1) Mass of proton. The Proton is actually a hydrogen atom which has lost its electron. Since mass of an electron is very small, we can say that mass of proton is equal to mass of a hydrogen atom. The relative mass of neutron in 1 u. the absolute mass of a neutron is 1.6 * 10^-24 gram. 2) Charge of proton. The charge of a proton is equal and opposite to the charge of an electron. So absolute charge of a proton is 1.6*10^-19 coulomb.
The subatomic particle that is neutral is 1. an isotope 2. a proton 3. a nucleus 4. a neutron. 5. an electron?
Neutron
