Today I was researching isotopes, and I don't really understand what the function of a neutron is. They add to the mass number of an element, but otherwise seem to do nothing. They have no effect in chemical reactions, nor do they effect what the element is. Obviously, neutrons do have a function, but I'm not sure what it is.
Anyone have a better idea than I do?
