Protons are particles within atoms. They have a positive charge. These are located within the nucleus of the atom (aka the center). Electrons, which are negatively charged particles, orbit the nucleus in a cloud surrounding the nucleus. These orbit really quickly and are what create static electricity, as well as the flow of current in electrical wires. Hope this helps!
