Place two identical 3-solar-mass black holes side by side. Add 1 solar mass of neutrons to the left-hand one and 1 solar mass of protons to the right-hand one. How will these two black holes differ?


A) The black holes will not differ at all since protons and neutrons are transformed into a common type of uncharged matter.
B) The left-hand black hole will have a stronger gravitational field than the right-hand one because a neutron is heavier than a proton.
