Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Electrons are negatively - charged sub - atomic particles. They are not neutral, not located in the nucleus (protons and neutrons are in the nucleus), and do not have a mass of 1 amu (protons and neutrons have a mass of approximately 1 amu). Chemical properties of an element are mainly determined by the number and arrangement of electrons.

Answer:

They are negatively charged and dictate chemical properties.
