Electrons

Electrons are tiny particles found inside atoms, which are the building blocks of matter. They have a negative electric charge and move around the atom’s nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons. Electrons help create electricity and magnetism, as their movement generates electric currents and magnetic forces. They also play a key role in chemical reactions by attaching to or detaching from other atoms, forming molecules. Despite their small size, electrons are fundamental to understanding how matter and energy behave in our universe.
