Answer»

Answer :- False

EXPLANATION :- there are many subatomic particles in atom. electron , proton , neutron, MESON , antineutrino , neutrino etc...
obviously , MASS of neutron > mass of proton > mass of electron. but it doesn't neutron is formed by an electron and a proton combining together. of course it is , but it is possible when we will TALK about a special case e.g., nuclear reaction. otherwise neutron is just a subatomic neutral charged particle. neutrons are postulated neutral because in GROUND state of any atom contains number of electron equals number of protons.
so, we can say given statement is false.
