Tanner Fischer · Answer 1

Answer: -

B-no charge, heavy, found in the nucleus

Explanation: -

Neutrons have no charge, being neutral sub atomic particles.

Neutrons are found alongside the protons inside the nucleus.

Neutrons have almost the same mass as the protons and are thus heavy.

So the correct answer is

B-no charge, heavy, found in the nucleus
