The charge of an electron is -1, and has a smaller mass of a proton. (For you Castle Learning users) :]
negative charge
An electron carries one fundamental unit of negative charge*, measured to be about 1.609 x 10-19 Coulombs.
(* The negative designation is a convention, established in the earliest experiments with electricity long before the existence of the electron was known.)
A proton has a +1 charge.
A neutron does not have a charge, it is neutral.

Electrons have what type of a charge?
All electrons have an equal negative charge (-1 standard electron charge), which is opposite to the standard proton charge (+1).
What type of charge do electrons carry?
Electrons carry a negative electrical charge. A neutron does not have a charge, it is neutral.
What charge is electrons?
Electrons charge is a negative
If an object has more electrons than protons it has what type of charge?
Since protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.
Protons have which type of charge?
Protons are positive (each is +1) and electrons are negative (each is -1)
What type of charge do the electrons have?
Electrons have a negative charge.
What type of charge do atoms have that gain electrons?
Since electrons are negative, they get a negative charge.
Why do they have this type of charge?
because they lose electrons
Electrons have what type of a charge?
All electrons have an equal negative charge (-1 standard electron charge), which is opposite to the standard proton charge (+1).
What type of charge do electrons carry?
Electrons carry a negative electrical charge. A neutron does not have a charge, it is neutral.
What charge is electrons?
Electrons charge is a negative
What three types of charges can electrons have?
"Electrons" can have only one type of charge ... a so-called 'negative' charge. If it has anything else, it's no electron.
If an object has more electrons than protons it has what type of charge?
Since protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.
What part of the atom moves around the nucleus what type of charge do they have?
Electrons move around the nucleus and they have a negative charge.
Do a slab of n type material carry a net negative charge?
No. The "n" and "p" does not refer to the negative or positive charge, but to the fact that there are atoms that can easily "donate" electrons (n-type), or atoms that can easily "accept" electrons (p-type).
What kind of charge does electrons have?
Electrons have a negative charge.
What kind of charge does electrons?
Electrons have a negative charge.
