What about inside the neutron? Is it neutral only because its pieces cancel, just like a hydrogen atom (consisting of a proton and electron) is neutral? The answer is yes. A neutron is believed to consists of three quarks: u d d. The charge of the u quark is +2/3 qp and the charge of each d quark is –1/3 qp. So the net charge is zero. ................
