All we can say is that it is the nature of electrons to carry a negative charge, and for protons to carry a positive charge. The intrinsic cause of these charges is still not yet understood, and awaits the further development of sub-atomic physics models.

How do you know the charge of a proton?
By definition, a proton is positive, so a proton will always have a positive charge.
What is the electric charge does proton have in electron?
A proton has a positive charge which is equal in magnitude but opposite to the charge on an electron, which is negative.
Which subatomic particles have a charge?
protons-positive neutrons-neutral electrons-negative
Which subatomic particle has a charge of 1?
Electrons have a charge of -1, protons have a charge of +1.
Why is the charge to mass ratio of proton not constant?
The charge and mass ratio of proton is constant, the positive particles found during discharge tube experiment are nuclei of atoms which have different charge and mass ratio.
Is proton charge of -1?
No, a proton's charge is +1.
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
What proton has a charge that is opposite the charge of?
The electron has a charge opposite to the proton's charge. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge.
A proton has a what?
A proton has a positive charge.
Does a proton have a poitive charge?
Yes, a proton has a positive charge.
How do you know the charge of a proton?
By definition, a proton is positive, so a proton will always have a positive charge.
What kind of a charge does a proton have?
A proton has a positive charge.
What are the relative charges of proton neutron and electron?
The proton has a positive charge, the neutron has no charge (neutral), and the electron has a negative charge. The proton has a charge of +1, the neutron has a charge of 0, and the electron has a charge of -1.
What are the charges for an electron and a proton?
A proton has a positive charge of +1 An electron has a negative charge of -1 An neutron has no charge
Does a proton have a A positive charge B negative charge or C no charge?
a proton has a positive charge
What is the charge of a proton?
With relation to an electron the proton has a charge of -1, since the proton's charge is opposite of the electron's. However, the common notation of charge is relative to a proton's- therefore, it is more accurate to leave things in terms of a proton's charge. In terms of proton charge, a proton has a charge of +1.
What is the electric charge does proton have in electron?
A proton has a positive charge which is equal in magnitude but opposite to the charge on an electron, which is negative.
