Electrons have a negative charge.

Explanation:

The three basic components of an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons.

The first two form the nucleus of the atom; protons are positively charged while neutrons have no charge.

Electrons are subatomic particles found generally in orbits around the nucleus; they have a negative charge.
