Electrons are different from protons and neutrons in following ways:

1)Electrons have a negative charge

2) Electrons have negligible mass.

3) Electrons revolve around the nucleus in specific energy orbitals.

4) During chemical reactions it is the participation of electrons that gives different products.

What are the basic parts of an atom?

The atom has a nucleus in the middle made up of protons and neutrons. This nucleus is surrounded by a cloud of electrons which inhabit different energy levels at different distances form the nucleus. The electrons are negatively charged, the protons are positively charged and the neutrons are electrically neutral. An atom always has the same number of electrons as it does protons, so the atom itself is electrically neutral.
