Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recall that an atom is composed of three main subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Understand the charges associated with each particle: protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge (neutral), and electrons have a negative charge.
Identify the particle with a negative charge, which is the electron.
Note that nucleons refer collectively to protons and neutrons, which are found in the nucleus and do not carry a negative charge.
Therefore, the negatively charged subatomic particles in an atom are called electrons.
