An Ion
An atom with no overall charge is called a "neutral atom." This occurs when the number of protons, which have a positive charge, is equal to the number of electrons, which have a negative charge, resulting in a net charge of zero. If an atom gains or loses electrons, it becomes an ion, which carries a charge.
Protons have a positive charge. Electrons have a negative charge.
protons
an electron
The center or Nucleus always carries a Positive Charge
An electron
The proton of an atom carries the positive charge.
The electron. There are three particles in an atom , they are:- Proton ; carries a charge of (+), and has an arbitrary mass of '1' Neutron ; carries no charge (o) , and has an arbitrary mass of '1' The above two particles are found the the nucleus of an atom, and are collectively named 'nucleons'. Electron ; carries a charge of (-), and has an arbitrary mass of 1/1860. It is found outside the nucleus of an atom.
There are three main particles in an atom. The electron, which is negatively charged, the proton, which is positively charged, and the neutron, which carries no charge.

The Proton
electron
The negative charge in an atom is in its electrons, which surround the atom's positively charged nucleus.
Any atom that has more electrons than protons carries a positive charge. These atoms are known as negatively charged ions.
The electron carries the negative charge.
