Protons, neutrons, and electrons are the main particles of an atom.

Protons are positively charged and are located in the nucleus of the atom.

Neutrons are neutrally charged and are also located in the nucleus.

Electrons are negatively charged and are located in the electron cloud, which is an area outside of the nucleus.

Within an atom, there will typically be the same number of protons and electrons so the atom has a neutral charge (they cancel out). Neutrons are usually also the same number, although it is not uncommon for the neutrons to have their own population.
