Elektron is the spelling for the Greek word meaning "amber". It originated as the namesake for the negatively charged subatomic particle known as the electron because of amber's affinity for developing a static charge when rubbed against certain materials, such as wool. In fact, while wool develops a positive charge (meaning it loses electrons) amber develops a negative charge by rubbing electrons off the wool.

Is it possible for an atom to have no neutrons?
A hydrogen atom is only a proton and an electron. Beyond that the neutron seems to keep the nucleus together and stable. Maybe a better question is, "What is the difference between a hydrogen atom without an electron and a proton?"
What is the electron configuration difference of Co and Co2 plus?

What is the difference between subatomic particles and elementary particles?
Subatomic particles are proton, neutron, electron; these particle are some examples of the large group of elementary particles.
What is the difference between a positron and an electron?
An electron is the carrier of the negative electrostatic force, and it has a charge of -1. Also, the electron, along with the proton and neutron, are the "basic building blocks" of atoms, and they make up the matter all around us. The positron, on the other hand, is an anti-electron - it's antimatter! And it is the antiparticle of the electron. It has a charge of +1, which is just the opposite of the electron's. The fact that the electron and positron are matter and anti-matter, and that they have a charge of -1 and +1 respectively are the major differences. A positron is an electron's anti-particle, and when the electron and positron come in contact with each other to combine, they annihilate each other in a process called electron-positron annihilation. There is a link below to that related question and to a couple of others.

What is the change in the electron's kinetic energy?
The change in an electron's kinetic energy is the difference between its initial kinetic energy and its final kinetic energy.
What is the difference between fluoride's electron configuration and fluorine's electron configuration?
Fluorine's electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p5, and since fluoride is just fluorine with an extra electron, or F-1, its electron configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6.
