Found orbiting outside the nucleus, this subatomic particle has a negative charge.
A
Neutron
B
Proton
C
Electron
D
Idontknowatron
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Electrons are negatively charged particles that generally orbit the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are much smaller than protons or neutrons.

Detailed explanation-2: -Electrons, which are negatively-charged, are located outside of the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are three subatomic particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Two of the subatomic particles have electrical charges: protons have a positive charge while electrons have a negative charge.

Detailed explanation-4: -Atoms are made up of protons and neutrons located within the nucleus, with electrons in orbitals surrounding the nucleus.

Detailed explanation-5: -The nucleus itself is generally made of protons and neutrons but even these are composite objects. Inside the protons and neutrons, we find the quarks, but these appear to be indivisible, just like the electrons.
