Electrons carry a negative electrical charge.
In S.I. units, the electron's charge is -1.602 x 10-19 Coulomb (to four significant figures).
Electrons are negative. so no positive charges attracts electrons because the opposite charges attract each other like ( + - ) but same charges repel like ( ++ ) or ( - - )
The names for charges were originally assigned by scientists in the field of electrochemistry. The convention for naming charges is based on the relative abundance or scarcity of electrons in an atom or molecule, with positive charges typically associated with a deficit of electrons and negative charges associated with an excess of electrons.

The static charges are held in the electrons
Electrons... Electrons are the atomic particles that have a negative electronic charge
Yes, in an atom, the negative charges of the electrons are balanced by the positive charges of the protons in the nucleus. This overall balance of positive and negative charges is what keeps the atom stable.

The difference between the positive charges (protons) and the negative charges (electrons).
cloudsAn atom is made of a core + electrons .The core is made of positive charges held together by neutral charges. The electrons, negative charges, orbit round it.If there is 5 positive charges in the core, 5 electrons would orbit around it. Otherwise it's not called an atom anymore, but a ion.
Electrons contain negative charges, and protons contain positive charges.
Charges are changed by the movement of electrons to or from an atom.
Charges come from the imbalance of protons and electrons in an atom. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and when these charges are not balanced in an atom, it becomes charged. This imbalance can result from the gain or loss of electrons in a process known as ionization.
