A neutron is a subatomic particle with no charge that is located in the nucleus.
An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle that orbits or rotates around the nucleus of the atom and has a mass much less than protons and neutrons. Atoms can have several electrons orbiting around the nucleus.
The Atomic Number is the number of protons in one atom.
The Atomic Mass Number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
An isotope of an atom is an atom with same atomic number (protons) but different number of neutrons.
