Question

Which of the following describe a neutron?
 		A.	mass number of 1
 		B.	atomic number of 0
 		C.	positive charge
 		D.	neutral charge

anonymous · Answer

Neutrons have neutral charge and I suppose that the mass may be called as mass number of 1

xishem · Answer

Neutrons also have an atomic number of 0 as they have no protons.

anonymous · Answer

I don't know how exactly do you decide what is the mass, but I know that the proton has a similar mass to the neutron

xishem · Answer

The mass of a proton and neutron are very close -- within a few thousands of an amu.

In isotope notation, neutrons are considered to have a mass number of 1.
