Chadwick discovered a subatomic particle which has no charge but has mass nearly equal to that of a proton. Name the particle and give it’s location in an atom.​

Answer 1

Answer:

In 1932, J. Chadwick discovered another subatomic particle which had no charge and a mass nearly equal to that of a proton. It was eventually named as neutron. Neutrons are present in the nucleus of all atoms, except hydrogen.

Answer 2

Neutron was discovered by J.Chadwick.

• An atom consists of subatomic particles like protons, electrons, and neutrons.

• The specialty of neutrons is that it lacks charge and has equal mass as protons.

• The nucleus of an atom hold protons and neutrons.

• Due to the lack of charge in neutrons, the overall charge of the nucleus is positive.  

• The nucleus is surrounded by orbits containing electrons having negative charges.

• The electrons that are far from the nucleus can be transferred to other molecules which are otherwise difficult when it is closer to the nucleus because of attraction between positive and negative charges.
