None of the above

Detailed explanation-1: -Electrons, which are negatively-charged, are located outside of the nucleus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Electrons have a negative charge but are extremely small and have a mass only 1/1850 that of a proton or neutron. They are so small that for practical purposes they do not contribute to the mass of the atom. Electrons move around the nucleus at tremendously high speeds, actually travelling at near the speed of light.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electrons are a type of subatomic particle with a negative charge.
Detailed explanation-4: -Electrons are negatively-charged subatomic particles that orbit the nucleus in an electron cloud.
Detailed explanation-5: -Miller, a UW physics professor, has found that the neutron has a negative charge both in its inner core and its outer edge, with a positive charge sandwiched in between to make the particle electrically neutral.
