Atoms contain three main particles. Electrons- which are negatively charged and swarm around the nucleus. Protons- which are positively charged, and are tightly packed in the nucleus. Neutrons- which are neutrally charged and are packed together with the protons in the nucleus of the atom. They are held there by strong nuclear force. You're welcome.
