what is difference between a proton and a neutron
shafiya147:
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. ... Proton—positive; electron—negative; neutron—no charge. The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. The same number of protons and electrons exactly cancel one another in a neutral atom.

Answer:
Protons are a type of subatomic particle with a positive charge. Protons are bound together in an atom's nucleus as a result of the strong nuclear force. Neutrons are a type of subatomic particle with no charge (they are neutral). ... As a result, a neutral atom must have an equal number of protons and electrons.
