This is called an electron.
Electrons are negatively charged sub atomic particles.
It is the negatively charged part of an atom.
neutron
Electron.
Not quite. You can have an atom of an element, for example an atom of Hydrogen, but not a Hydrogen of an atom. The parts of an atom are protons (positively charged), neutrons (no charge), and electrons (negatively charged).

A. It is the most massive part of the atom. The nucleus, composed of protons and neutrons, contains the majority of an atom's mass, while electrons, which are negatively charged, orbit around the nucleus. Thus, options B, C, and D are incorrect.
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
This is called an electron. It is a tiny subparticle floating around the nucleus in what are knwon as orbitals. There are 2 electrons MAX per orbital, although electrons erpel each other, so if there is enough space to put one electron in every orbital and have them spread out, then the electrons prefer it that way.
No. An electron is negatively charged but it is not an atom. It is a subatomic particle and the negatively charged component of an atom.
When an atom gains an electron the no of negatively charged particles increases inside the atom and the atom gets negatively charged.
A positively charged part of an atom is called a proton. It is located in the nucleus of the atom along with neutrons and is balanced by negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus.
