how do the charge and a mass of a neutron compare to the charge and mass of a proton

OpenStudy (sreekar369):

The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton. The neutron has no electric charge while the proton has a positive charge (+1 elementary charge). The mass of a neutron and a proton are 1.67492729(28)×10−27 kilograms and 1.672621637(83)×10−27 kilograms respectively. That makes the neutron about 25/10,000ths more massive than the proton.
