Electrons have negative charges, and unlike neutrons and protons are located on the outside of the atom. They are generally located in electron clouds around the atom, and stay there because of their attraction to protons that are in the nucleus of the atom.

Electrons have negative charge. Electrons can only exist in specific energy orbitals.
Electrons never orbit in the space between various energy orbitals.

What are the similarities between voltage and current?
both involve electrons both can be measured both involve electricity both can do parallel and series
Cathode rays were shown to be a stream of?
Cathode rays are electrons.
What gives electrons there electricity?
Electrons don't have electricity they only posses energy, Electricity is defined as the flow of electrons! In conductors the flow of valence electrons are called Electricity! therefore inducing a current in it! generally the direction of flow the current is the opposite of the direction of flow of electrons(D.C)!
How are electrons generated in a gas filled tube?
As this relates to EE, the electrons are already in there.
What measures the volume of electrons through a circuit?
Current measures the flow of electrons through a circuit and voltage basically measure the amount of available electrons.
Electricity produces work when the electrons in a conductor?
Electricity produces work when the electrons in a conductor
How do you work out how many electrons in an atom?
An atom's atomic number is the number of electrons.
How do protons and electrons work together in H₂O?
Yes, protons and electrons do work together in water, except in the dead sea. protons and electrons work together in air and water, that's what makes a blck sink. Rohit
What is a cathod and its work?
it is the way of removing the electrons
What does the work in an electric circuit?
The load that is connected in a circuit is what does the work in the circuit.
Do electrons have a negative energy?
yes the do the cant work with out it
How do you work out how many electrons are in an element?
electron +you = how many of it it is
How does the electrons microscope work?
An electron microscope use a beam of electrons instead visible light as source of illumination.
How do you work out the number of valence electrons in a substance?
Just get to know the periodic table of the elements; that is the key to understanding valence electrons.
What can be expected to give a spectrum most closely like that of the Helium atom Lithium?
Helium has two electrons around a nucleus so you would look for an element that has two electrons more then filled shells. Lithium has 2 electrons in a filled shell and 1 electron more so it wouldn't work too well. Beryllium has 2 electrons in a filled shell and 2 electrons more so it would work pretty good. Magnesium has 2 electrons in a filled shell, 8 electrons in the next filled shell and 2 more electrons so it would also work pretty good.
What makes a power line work?
A power line works by electrons flowing through from power line to power line but if something interferes with the power lines the flow of electrons will not work. (flow)
Can transformers change the electrons so they work better for electric lights?
By altering the energy (speed) of electrons, a transformer may be used to ionize a gas.
