1 Electrons-Subatomic particle that has almost no weight and carries a negative charge; orbits in a shell about the nucleus of an atom. 2  Neutrons-Subatomic particle that has a weight of one atomic mass unit, carries no charge, and is found in the nucleus of an atom.
What zooms around the nucleus of an atom? Electrons Which one has a positive charge, a negative charge, and no charge? Protonâpositive; electronânegative; neutronâno charge. The charge on the proton and electron are exactly the same size but opposite. The same number of protons and electrons exactly cancel one another in a neutral atom. Note: The picture shows a simple model of the carbon atom. It illustrates some basic information like the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. It also shows that the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
