The main difference between Proton, Neutron and Electrons can be found in their charges. Protons are positively charged and neutrons are neutral whereas electrons are negatively charged. Protons are found in the nucleus of the atom, and they reside together with neutrons...

Answer:

Neutron is a neutral sub-atomic particle found in an atom. Electron is a negatively charged sub-atomic particle found in an atom.

neutron has no charge whereas electron has a charge and mass also, neutron occurs inside the nucleus whereas electron is present outside nucleus.

Explanation:

An electron

-has a negative charge

-has relatively no mass compared to a neutron

-not found in the nucleus

-found in the electron cloud that surrounds the nucleus

-the electrons on the outermost ring called the valence electrons participate in chemical reactions

- is considered a lepton, an elementary particle

A neutron

-has a neutral charge

-is significantly heavier than a electron

-found in the nucleus with protons

-made of quarks, specifically 2 down quarks and an up quark
