Electron in an atom or molecule
An electron that is part of an atom or molecule.
استعمال کا انداز:
an electron in [an atom/molecule]; valence electrons
عام غلطی:
Learners may think electrons move in fixed circular paths; in modern descriptions they occupy orbitals (regions of probability).

Charge carrier in electric current
A moving electron that carries electricity in a wire or device.
استعمال کا انداز:
electrons flow through [a wire/material]; electron flow
عام غلطی:
Learners often mix up electron flow (negative to positive) with conventional current direction (positive to negative).
