Answer is: It has a negative charge and is located in orbitals around the nucleus.

The electron (symbol: e⁻) is a subatomic particle whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge.

Electrons are moving in energy levels around nucleus.

The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton.

Electrons have properties of both particles and waves.
