Neutrons
A neutron is an atomic particle found in the nucleus, or centre, of an atom. Neutrons
do not move and have no charge (i.e. are neutral). A given element has a certain number
of protons, but the number of neutrons can vary. For example, oxygen always has eight
protons, but it can have eight or ten neutrons.
