... a positive central nucleus , where most of the atom's mass is concentrated, and . one or more negative electrons . Nucleus and electrons are held together by the electric attraction between positive (+) and negative (-) charges. ... When such processes occur in air, they produce there free ions and electrons, which can move and carry an electric current, something neutral atoms cannot do. ... The next heavier atom is that of helium (chemical symbol He) and it contains two electrons. ...
