no they are neither, they have a neutral chargeNeutrons carry a neutral electrical charge. Protons have a positive and electrons have a negative electrical charge.


What electrical charge do protons neutrons and electrons have?

Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have negative charge.Neutrons do not carry an electrical charge:)A proton has a positive charge. Remember, NEUTRon = NEUTRal. Proton = Positive. The electrical charge of a proton is 1.6x10^-19 which is equal and opposite to the electrical charge of an electron which is -1.6x10^-19.


What elements that build up electrical discharge?

Electrons build up electrical discharge. They carry negative charge.


What are Atoms that carry an electrical charge called because they have gained or lost electrons?

Atoms that carry an electrical charge because they gained or lost electrons are called ions. An atom that has lost electrons will be positively charged, and it is called cation. On the other hand, an atom that has gained electrons will be negatively charged, and it is called anion.


Does Electrons carry a negative and positive charge?

Do the protons carry a positive electrical charge and electrons carry a negative electrical charge?

Yes. Providing that you are talking about normal matter. The anti-matter version in each case has opposite charge.


Why do electrons not have a charge?

They do have a charge, it's negative


Are there protons in electric ciruits?

Wherever there is material, there are protons. But protons are not the things that carry the charge around in electrical circuits. Electrons do that.
