Answer:
The neutron having, as its name suggests, no electrical charge, is not affected by the electrical charge on nuclei. It is thus an ideal projectile in the starting of nuclear reactions: as was noticed by Rutherford when he proposed his 1920 hypothesis of 'a sort of neutral atom that was not of hydrogen'.
