1. negative charge

   A negative charge is a type of electric charge often carried by particles such as electrons. In the atomic structure, electrons are the negatively charged components. When an atom or a particle has more electrons than protons, it carries a negative charge. It is characterized by its ability to repel other negatively charged particles and attract positively charged particles, according to the laws of electrostatics. This fundamental property is essential for many physical and chemical phenomena including electricity and magnetism.

1. Negative Charge

   One of the two kinds of electric charges. The other is the positive. By the double fluid hypothesis this is assumed to be a charge of a particular kind of electricity--negative electricity. By the single fluid hypothesis it is supposed to be caused by the absence of part of the normal electricity of a surface. The reverse is held by some theorists. The subject is so purely theoretical that neither of the two hypotheses is accepted as final. [Transcriber's note: Current is a wire is the motion of negative electrons. Current in a electrolyte is the motion of positive ions and negative ions. Current in a plasma is the motion of electrons and positive ions.]
