$\huge\pink{Neutron was discovered by Rutherford }$

At first it was thought that an atom consists of electron and proton . But after observing that mass of atom is greater then mass of proton + electron then it was assumed that it must contain a neutral particle .

$\huge\blue{PROPERTIES OF NEUTRONS }$

1▪ Neutron is a neutral particle

2▪ Neutron cannot be ionized

3▪ They are highly penetrating particles

4▪ They can repel or remove protons from water , paper , parafine .

5▪ Their mass is nearly equal to that of proton .

6▪ A free neutron decays into a proton , an electron and a nutrino .

0 n^1----------->1p^1 + 1e^0+ 0n^0 ----> nutrino

7▪ Neutron which travels with an energy 1.2MeV are called fast neutrons , the neutron which travel with energy below 1 eV are called slow neutrons

8▪ Neutron is also the fundamental particle of matter .
