The extra neutron is electrically neutral, and can interact with the electron cloud only weakly (literally),


Is it that it interacts weakly with the electrons, or simply that it doubles the inertia of the atom it's in, making it more resistant to getting shoved around by outside forces? (Also heavier gravitationally, of course.)
