Answer:

Neutrons are neutrally charged, that is to say they don't have a positive or negative charge and are uncharged.

Protons have a positive charge.

Electrons have a negative charge.

The atom itself as a whole is neutral as the protons and electrons balance each others' charge.

hope it helps

Answer:

neutrons : It has no electric charge and a rest mass equal to 1.67492749804 × 10−27 kg

electrons : It carries a negative charge of 1.602176634 × 10−19 coulomb

protons : positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27
