Electrons form the basis for electric charge of atoms. Chemistry, in it's most basic form, is the study of atoms and how they interact to form molecules.

The biggest influence by far of this interaction is through the electric charge that the atoms have, and how they attract and repel to form molecules. Hence the saying, chemistry is all in the electrons.

What are subatomic particles in chemistry?

since you said chemistry this should be the answer, the one i have in mind.. in an atom there are protons and neutrons in the middle or nucleus, fling around that are electrons. protons, neutrons, and electrons are subatomic particles (makes the atom stable when it's the same number of all three. google it!
