Previous answer submitted was "electrons are made up of quarks"
They most certainly are not! Electrons are leptons. Leptons are NOT made of quarks (the proton and the neutron are barions and thus made of 3 quarks). Fermions are believed to be fundamental meaning they are not made up of any smaller particle. However, some research has shown that they may be made up lesser charged particles "quasi-particles" which are a mixture of boson and fermion called ANYONS (bosons are massless (like light patricles) and fermions and leptons have mass)
[This is quantum physics by the way, not chemistry]

The above answer is not exactly correct either (I think he wanted to say are electrons made of matter).
Electrons are made up of something, we simply don't know the nature of this matter. But electrons as fundamental particles are not divisible in other smaller particles.

Is static electricity made up of electrons that are not moving?
Static electricity is made up of electrons and protons that are not moving.
A device made by J. J. Thomson to process and detect electrons is the?
A device made by J. J. Thomson to process and detect electrons is the?
Were r electrons located?
Electrons are located on Energy levels (shells) which surround the Nucleus which is made up of Protons and Neutrons.
What is made of electric current?
It is made out of small particals, smaller than atoms called electrons.
Who made the beam of electrons in vacuum tube?
This beam of electrons is emited by the cathode under voltage difference.
Why do you have electrons in your body?
Your body is made of molecules which are made of atoms. All atoms have electrons.
Are all compounds made by sharing electrons?
Only covalent compounds are made by sharing electrons.
How many neutrons are in electrons?
Zero. Electrons are not made up of neutrons.
Is static electricity made up of electrons that are not moving?
Static electricity is made up of electrons and protons that are not moving.
Is a nucleus made up of protons and electrons or electrons and neutrons or protons and neutrons?
The nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons; the electrons form electron shells around the nucleus.
Do you have electrons in your body?
Yes. Your body is made up of cells. Cells are made up of atoms at the atomic level. All atoms have electrons. Ergo, your body has electrons.
What is the electron cloud made of?
It is made up of electrons !!
How many neutrons are in 1000000 electrons?
Zero. Electrons are not made up of neutrons.
What is a substance called that is made up of two or more electrons that can be easily separated?
Substances as we know them are not made up entirely of electrons. Electricity is composed of moving electrons, but it is not exactly a substance.
How where atoms discovered to be made of electrons?
1. Atoms are made from the atomic nucleus (protons plus neutrons) and electrons.2. For the discovery of electrons is credited J. J. Thomson in 1897.
What statement is made by a cloud of negatively charged electrons?
First, all electrons are negatively charged. Second, electrons can not talk.
What do you think an atoms made of?
They are made of electrons, neutrons and protons.
