Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged while neutrons have no charge.

Detailed explanation-4: -Proton-positive; electron-negative; neutron-no charge.

Detailed explanation-5: -As opposite charges attract, negatively charged electrons are drawn to positively charged protons. Electrons are referred to as negative because of their behavior in an electric field. In an electric field, an electron will move from the negative pole to the positive pole, giving it a negative charge by convention.
