Proton and electron
The proton (+) and the electron (-).
Carrying charge means it is an ION, not an atom
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
In a neutral atom, the part that has a positive electric charge is the nucleus, which contains protons. Protons carry a positive charge, while neutrons, also found in the nucleus, are electrically neutral. The overall neutrality of the atom is maintained by an equal number of negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus.
The overall charge on an atom is neutral, meaning it has no net electric charge. This neutrality arises because the number of protons, which carry a positive charge, is equal to the number of electrons, which carry a negative charge. The protons are located in the nucleus, while the electrons orbit around the nucleus, balancing the charges and resulting in an overall neutral atom. However, if an atom gains or loses electrons, it becomes an ion and carries a positive or negative charge, respectively.
The neutrons are the part of the atom that carry no electric charge. They are found in the nucleus. the protons carry a positive charge and the electrons carry a negative charge.
The neutrons are the part of the atom that carry no electric charge. They are found in the nucleus. the protons carry a positive charge and the electrons carry a negative charge.
An atom that is not an ion has no electric charge. If it is particles that make up the atom you speak of, the nucleus houses the neutron; an elementary particle with zero charge.

Carrying charge means it is an ION, not an atom
An atom that does not have a neutral charge is called an ion. It has an unequal number of protons and electrons.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
Electrons are the particles that move to carry electricity within an atom. They have a negative charge and are located in the outer shells of an atom. When electrons flow, they create an electric current.
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
A neutron is a subatomic particle that does not have an electric charge. It is found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons, which have a positive charge, and electrons, which have a negative charge.
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons. Neutrons are neutral and protons have a positive charge so the nucleus is positively charged. Around the nucleus there are orbiting electrons which are negatively charged. The positive nucleus and the negative electrons make the overall charge of the atom neutral
