Answer 2

Here's your answer!

Proton :-

• It is present inside the nucleus of an atom but carries positive charge.

• Mass : 1.00727 amu or 1.672 × 10^-19.

• Discoverer : E. Goldstein in 1886.

• It carries an actual charge of +1.6 × 10^-19 C.

• Symbol : p+

• Relative Mass : 1

• Relative Charge : +1

Neutron :-

• It is also present inside the nucleas of an atom but carries no charge.

• Mass : 1.00867 amu.

• Discoverer : James Chadwick in 1932.

• It carries 0 actual charge.

• Symbol : n

• Relative Mass : 1

• Relative Charge : 0
