The negatively subatomic charged particles that circle the nucleus are called electrons and they are found in orbitals of specific energy levels and there number is dependant on the atomic number of a certain element. Together with atomic nuclei, electrons make up atoms; their interaction with adjacent nuclei is the main cause of chemical bonding.

Electrons, though their circling the nucleus is rather an old fashioned model and now a days, they talk of an electron cloud and probabilistic positions etc. The nucleus consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons are, well, neutral, though a neutron can sometime decay into a proton and an electron! That electron is called a Beta particle.

Electrons circle the nucleus at specific energy levels.

negatively charged particles are called the electrons, they exists on the shell of the atom, like the valence electrons. the protons and nuetrons exists in the nucleus.

They are called electrons. The electron is a fundamental subatomic particle that carries a negative electric charge. It is a spin-½ lepton that participates in electromagnetic interactions, and its mass is less than one thousandth of that of the smallest atom. Its electric charge is defined by convention to be negative, with a value of −1 in atomic units. Together with atomic nuclei, electrons make up atoms; their interaction with adjacent nuclei is the main cause of chemical bonding.

Theyre called ELECTRONS. These electrons orbit the nucleus They are in valance shells and are negatively charged.

You mean Electrons?

Those would be electrons. Protons are positivly charged, and neutrons are neutral.

Electrons; remember that episode of WKRP where they "taught" it? Here it is.
