No elements are negatively charged. A pure element is ALWAYS neutral.

However an ANION is any element that has gained an electron as it bonds with another element, and a CATION is any element that has lost an electron as it bonds with another element.

ANIONS are negative.

CATIONS are positive.

CATIONS and ANIONS are collectively knows as IONS.

What have an electric charge of 1?

Atoms with charge are called ions. These ions have either gained or lost valence electrons to gain a net positive or net negative charge. Ions with a positive electrical charge of positive 1 (+1) are metals in the Alkali Metals Group and Hydrogen. Ions with a negative electrical charge of 1 (-1) are elements in the Halogen Group.
