Question

Choose the appropriate description for an electron.
1. negative charge, large relative mass, and found outside the nucleus
2. positive charge, large relative mass, and found within the nucleus
3. neutral charge, large relative mass, and found within the nucleus
4. negative charge, small relative mass, and found outside the nucleus

Answer 1

Answer:negative charge, small relative mass, and found outside the nucleus

Explanation:

The electron is one of the subatomic particles. It is negatively charged and has a relatively small or somewhat negligible mass. It is found outside the nucleus on the orbits. The electron is bound to the nucleus by electrostatic forces of attraction in the Bohr's model of the atom.
