Yes, but you have to take into account how clumsy the atom is for it to lose a neutron and how much of a kleptomaniac it is to steal one from another atom.
Hydrogen atoms have no neutrons because they are female and helium have two because they are male. Other elements have more neutrons because they are a freak of nature.
it would become an isotope of the original element.
To add to the correct information above, the atoms atomic weight would be reduced by 1 unit. Also, if it is radioactive, its half-life might change. In any case, its atomic number, and its valence will remain the same.
it loses a neutron
The neutron.
The atom that gains electron becomes an anion. The atom that loses electron becomes a cation.
neutron, proton, electron
Neutron.
Proton, Electron, and Neutron.
An atom is larger than a neutron; a neutron is a part of any atom except a hydrogen atom.
you can find the neutron in the center of an atom.
The neutron is a part of the atom, therefore it is smaller.
When an atom actually gains a neutron from outside it is called neutron capture. Atoms almost never emit neutrons (except when high energy processes happen). Most cases of "gain or loss" of neutrons by an atom happen entirely inside the nucleus, when the process of Beta decay converts a proton to or from a neutron.

yes, H-1 atom has no neutron
A neutron has no charge, so a charged atom (ion) cannot attract a neutron.
yes, H-1 atom has no neutron
There is no such thing as a neutron atom. A neuton is a particle that exists within the nucleus of an atom.
This particle is the neutron.
Adding a neutron increases the atom's mass by about 1 AMU assuming it remains stable.
