Answer:
because they possess no charge
Explanation:
Neutrons are the particles in an atom that have a neutral charge. They aren't positive like protons. They aren't negative like electrons. ... So, if an atom has equal numbers of electrons and protons, the charges cancel each other out and the atom has a neutral charge.
an atom contains protons electrons and neutrons whereas protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged whereas neutrons has zero charge so they are the neutral particles
