The negative charge in an atom is called an electron. Electrons are subatomic particles that orbit the nucleus of an atom and are responsible for carrying electrical current and forming chemical bonds.
Electrons are the tiny particles found in an atom that carry a negative charge. They orbit around the nucleus of an atom in specific energy levels. The number of electrons in an atom determines its chemical properties.
Not exactly. Though it IS true that in a normal atom, the number of protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of neutrons, to make the atom electrically neutral (non-ionic), the number of protons (positively charged particles) must equal the number of electrons (negatively charged particles) that surround the nucleus.
The electrons; their negativity cancels out the protons' positivity so the atom is electrically neutral.
Proton carry positive charge.Electrons carry negative charge.Neutrons carry no charge.
thesubatomic particles are the particles smaller than an atom
In the atom these particles are the electrons.

The electron cloud.
Particles in an atom have opposite electrical charges, which cause the particles to attract each other, kind of like how positive and negative magnets stick together.

Subatomic particles with no charges are neutrons

there is an equal number of positive and negative charges which exactly cancel each other out.
