Question

Match the subatomic particles with respect to the charges they possess.

• A. No charge
• B. Negative charge
• C. Positive charge

Answer 1

Protons, electrons and neutrons are subatomic particles of an atom. Protons are positively charged particle present in the nucleus of an atom along with chargeless neutrons. Mass of both protons and neutrons are relatively same. Electrons are negatively charged particles which revolve around the nucleus in specific circular orbits. Mass of an electron is $(\frac{1}{1200}{)}^{\text{th}}$ the mass of a proton.
