Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the basic properties of subatomic particles: Protons, neutrons, and electrons are the primary subatomic particles that make up an atom.
Identify the charge of each particle: Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge.
Consider the mass of each particle: Protons and neutrons have appreciable mass, while electrons have a much smaller mass.
Analyze the options given: The question asks for a particle with appreciable mass but no charge.
Conclude based on the properties: Neutrons fit the criteria as they have appreciable mass and no charge.
