Which particle is positively charged?

Explanation:
Protons carry a positive electric charge. Neutrons have no charge, and electrons carry a negative charge. In an atom, the positively charged protons in the nucleus balance the negatively charged electrons around the nucleus, so the atom is neutral when those numbers are equal. Radioactive waste isn’t a subatomic particle and doesn’t describe a positive charge.
