atoms often gain or lose electrons,which causes them to have a temporary negative or positive charge.

What is a charged particle?
Any elementary particle with an electrical charge (sort of circular answer); How about ... it's either an electron (negative) or a proton (positive). There are others, but you'll probably never come in contact with them.
Is it true that unlike protons and electrons neutrons have no charge?
Yes that's true! You got that one right! :)Here's a helpful way to help you remember this:Neutrons have NO charge. (hint: here's way to remember it. "N" in neutrons for "N" in "NO")Protons are positive charge ("P" from protons, "P" for positive)Electrons are negative charge (well if you remember the other 2, then this one obviously got to be negative. just remember the others, and that electron is opposite charge of proton)..Well that's how I remembered it back then, made it easier for me.

What is a particle with no charge called?
Neutral (ba-dump-tsssh!). There are a number of particles with no electric charge, including but not limited to"NeutronsNeutrinos (all varieties)PhotonsGluons (gluons carry "color charge", but not electric charge)Gravitons (provided they exist; the jury is still out on that)

Properties of charges?
There are three different types of charges: positive, negative, and neutral. All three have their own specific properties having to do solely on atomic particles. In positive substances or ions, you will have a large number of protons which have a positive charge to outnumber the charge of the electrons which give off a negative charge, and lastly you have neutrons which don't really give a substance anything other than mass, to get a neutral charge the protons and neutrons must be in equal amounts to cancel out each others' charges.
Why might you feel shy in listing your positive or negative attributes?
We might feel shy listing our positive or negative attributes. Listing positive attributes may seem as if we are showing off our capabilities in front of others. While, listing negative attributes may give others a chance of getting to know our weaknesses.

A subatomic particle that has a negitive charge?
Electrons have a negative charge. Anti-Protons can be synthesized in certain cases, and also have a negative charge, although they would not be part of normal matter.
