If neutrons exert only attractive force, why don't we have a nucleus containing neutrons alone?

The force acting between proton and proton inside the nucleus is.

Attractive Force exists between two protons inside the Nucleus. This is due to

Nucleus contains protons and neutrons only but in beta decay, the electrons are emitted from the nucleus. Explain.

Which of the following assertions are correct? (i) A neutron can decay to a proton only inside a nucleus (ii) A proton can change to a neutron only inside a nucleus (iii) An isolated neutron can change into a proton (iv) An isolated proton can change into a neutron

Assertion: Forces acting between proton-proton (f_(pp)) , proton -neutron (f_(pn)) and neutron -neutron (f_(n n)) are such that f_(pp) lt f_(pn)=f_(n n) . Reason: Electrostatic force of repulsion between two proton reduces net nuclear forces between them.

STATEMENT-I: It is possible for a thermal neutron to be absorbed by a nucleus where as proton or an alpha particle would need a much larger amount of energy for being absorbed by the same nucleus. STATEMENT-II: Neutron is electically neutral but proton and alpha particle are positively charged.

Assertion : Protons carrying positive charges are compactly residing inside the nucleus. Reason : Electrostatic repulsive force between protons is very weak.
