Question

Can anybody tell me why protons cant be transferred? also why only electrons transferred themselves?

Answer 1

You can totally transfer charge using protons. ... This means that when there is a charge imbalance and either proton or electron flow could alleviate it, the electrons will flow way before the protons are impelled to move. 2.) electrons are the mobile charged particles in a solid - all the protons are bound in nuclei

The nucleus is heavy and positively charged. The electron is light and negatively charged. They attract, so if the electron moves sideways at the right speed it will bend toward the nucleus and just keep on bending in a circle, the same as a satellite orbiting earth.

Answer 2

Because proton is positively charged in an structure of atom and electon is negatively charged in an structure of atom
