What is a sub particle that orbits around an atoms nucleus and carries a negative charge?

What is around each electron that orbits an atom's nucleus is?

Electrons has a negative charge.


What is a particle smaller than an atom the carries no charge?

This is the neutron - so called because it is 'neutral'. It is found, with the positively charged protons in the central nucleus of the atom, while the negatively charges electrons rotate in orbits ('shells') around it.


What is the name of the subatomic particle in the atom that has a negative charge and orbits around the nucleus?

Electron is a negative sub atomic particle which revolves round the nucleus.


What is the contrast between protons and electrons?

protons have a positive electric charge,stay in the nucleus of an atom and are about 4000 times bigger than an electron which orbits the nucleus and has a negative electric charge.


If neutrons are found in the nucleus what charge will be on the nucleus?

Neutrons have zero charge, so a nucleus with 5 protons and 5 neutrons has the same charge as a nucleus with 5 protons and 6 neutrons: the charge on both is +5.Electrons have a negative charge, so if you had 5 protons, 5 neutrons and 5 electrons, the net charge would be 0. (But electrons aren't found inside the nucleus; they "orbit" around it. Their "orbits" are crazy complicated and aren't exactly orbits the way planets have--but that's a different question.)


How do you use the word electron in a sentence?

The electron has a negative charge and orbits the positively charged atomic nucleus. Many compounds are made possible by electron sharing between elements.


What are some characteristics of am atoms nucleus?

When it comes to characteristics of atoms, all of them have one nucleus and electrons that circulate in orbits around the nucleus. The nucleus has protons and neutrons.


a small negatively charge particle that orbits the nucleus?

This elementary particle is the electron.


What are Electrons floating in a sea of positive charge?

Orbits or orbitals


How the orbits of planets will be modified if the planets were electrically charged?

It would make things tricky if some were positively charged and others negatively charged. The good thing about gravity is that all objects attract each other, and this allowed stars to form. Electrical charge can attract or repel so the orbits would be a whole lot more complicated. The same force-law applies, the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, so if the Sun was a positive charge and the Earth negative the present orbit would be the same (provided the amount of charge was right).


Do the earth and the moon orbit the sun since the moon orbits the earth and the earth the sun?

Yes, while the Earth orbits the Sun, the Moon carries on orbiting the Earth, as it is not as affected by the distant gravity of the Sun as it is by the nearer gravity of Earth.
