What subatomic particle has a negative charge and maintains an orbital cloud around the nucleus of the atom?

group of answer choices

elements

photon

neutron

electron

proton

Electron

Explanation:

The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.

Symbol= e⁻

Mass= 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg

It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.

While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.

Symbol of proton= P⁺

Symbol of neutron= n⁰

Mass of proton=1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg

Mass of neutron=1.674929×10⁻²⁷Kg

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.  All these three subatomic particles construct an atom.

i think it's c. i'm not sure but i think so.
