There are many subatomic partials but the three basic ones are: the electron, the neutron, and the proton. The electron has a negative (-) charge. the proton has a positive (+) charge. and, The neutron doesn't have a charge (but has more mass).
if you where talking about quarks, they are a bit more complex (and theoretical) and I don't rely know...

Is electrical charge a subatomic particle?
It is a property, like mass. Not a particle. The electron and proton charges are considered to be the reference charges (-e and +e).
How do the electric charges of alpha particles beta particles and gamma rays differ from each other?
From Physics Forums The alpha particle has a 2+ charge, beta has 1- charge, and the gamma is neutral (no charge). The beta particle could also have a 1+ charge if it undergoes positron emission [a proton turns into a neutron and a positron (the "anti-electron")]
What is the number of protons neutrons and electronss of helium?
Two of each subatomic particle listed in the question.
Where in the atom do you find each of the subatomic particles?
The only subatomic particle that has any role in chemistry is the electron.
What are the changes on each subatomic particle?
Do you mean Charges? There is the Proton which has a positive or + charge. An electron which has a negative or - charge. And a nuetron that has no charge. There are other sub-subatomic particles i don't think they have charges though.... not sure on that one.
What is the charge on each subatomic particle?
For the atom: Neutron: Charge: neutral Electron: Charge: negative Proton: Charge: positive
Which subatomic particle has a charge of 1 and a mass of 1 AMU?
Both one proton and one neutron each has a relative mass of 1 a.m.u.
Is electrical charge a subatomic particle?
It is a property, like mass. Not a particle. The electron and proton charges are considered to be the reference charges (-e and +e).
What charge does each subatomic particle carry?
The proton carries a positive charge, while the electron carries a negative charge. The neutron which some physicists believe is a proton and electron smushed together, has no charge.
Which subatomic particles are attracted to each other?
Protons, which have positive charge, attract electrons, which have negative charge. Also, quarks with positive charge attract quarks with negative charge. (Actually, it is this electric charge which defines the properties of the particle they make up. A proton has more quarks with positive charges than with negative charges, for example.)
What is the electric charge of each particle in an atom?
Proton: positive Electron: negative Neutron: neutral
How can you figure out how many of each subatomic particle is in a atom has?
j
What is a property that causes subatomic particles such as protons and electrons to attract or repel each other?
electric charge, via the electromagnetic force.
What are the masses of each subatomic particle?
protons and neutrons are about 1 amu
Which subatomic particle identifies isotopes?
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope.
Which subatomic particle identifies an isotope?
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope.
The subatomic particle that is most responsible for how an atom reacts with other atoms is?
Assuming that you mean the chemical properties, the electrons are what define each element. If you meant subatomic particles, then it doesn't matter; each subatomic particle has unique characteristics.
