Electrons are the subatomic particles responsible for most chemical behavior (with the notable exception of nuclear chemistry), specifically the outer or valence electron shells.
The valence electrons are responsible mainly. But protons are responsible for nuclear reactions.

The number of protons in the nucleus ...

but the actual chemical reactions are controlled by the number of electrons in the outer shell (which is set by the total number of protons).

What does the subatomic particle do?

Protons and neutrons are the components of the atomic nucleus; the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, the most important parameter for a chemical element. Electrons surround the nucleus and are responsible (the last level) for the chemical properties of elements.
