Thanks for asking this question. Actually, the answer is drift velocity. There is a movement of electrons that means the movement of negative charges towards positive ones whenever an external force is applied.
After the removal of electrons from an atom, positives ion is formed which attracts towards negative charge. Now the point is that positive ion has very high molecular mass as compared to the electrons because of which they can't move. During this whole movement process, atoms also get drift velocity.
Hope it will help.
