Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom and carry a negative charge. The number and arrangement of electrons determine an atom's chemical properties.

What is around each electron that orbits an atom's nucleus is?

Electrons has a negative charge.


The is the particle in the nucleus with a positive charge?

The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge. This is because the nucleus contains both protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge. The electrons, which have a negative charge are found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.


Can you give me a sentence with the word electron?

The electron is a subatomic particle with negative elementary charge.


What is a sub particle that orbits around an atoms nucleus and carries a negative charge?

How do you use the word electron in a sentence?

The electron has a negative charge and orbits the positively charged atomic nucleus. Many compounds are made possible by electron sharing between elements.


What is the name of the subatomic particle in the atom that has a negative charge and orbits around the nucleus?

Electron is a negative sub atomic particle which revolves round the nucleus.


What part of the atom has a negative charge is the?

The electron is the part of the atom that has a negative charge. It orbits the nucleus, which consists of positively charged protons and neutrally charged neutrons.


What is the contrast between protons and electrons?

protons have a positive electric charge,stay in the nucleus of an atom and are about 4000 times bigger than an electron which orbits the nucleus and has a negative electric charge.


If neutrons are found in the nucleus what charge will be on the nucleus?

Neutrons have zero charge, so a nucleus with 5 protons and 5 neutrons has the same charge as a nucleus with 5 protons and 6 neutrons: the charge on both is +5.Electrons have a negative charge, so if you had 5 protons, 5 neutrons and 5 electrons, the net charge would be 0. (But electrons aren't found inside the nucleus; they "orbit" around it. Their "orbits" are crazy complicated and aren't exactly orbits the way planets have--but that's a different question.)


What part of the atom moves around the nucleus what type of charge do they have?

Electrons move around the nucleus of an atom. Electrons have a negative charge.


What part of atoms circulates within orbits and carries a negative charge?

Electrons; valence electrons are on the outermost level


What is the negative charge of the nucleus?

A nucleus is made from protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive charge where neutrons carry no charge. Hence, a negative charge never occurs in a nucleus.
