Assignment Help:

Neutron is a fundamental particle which is necessary constituent of all nuclei except that of hydrogen molecule. It was discovered by Chadwick.

(1) The charge of neutron: It is neutral

(2) The mass of neutron: 1.6750 × 10-27 kg

(3) Its magnetic moment: 9.57 ×10-27 J/Tesla

(4) Its half life: 12 minutes

(5) Penetration power: High

(6) Types: there are two types of neutron slow neutron and fast neutron; both are fully capable of penetrating a nucleus and causing artificial disintegration.
