No, neutrons do not circle an atomic nucleus. They are bonded to protons in the nucleus to form it. It is the electrons that circle the nucleus and make up the electron cloud.

No, the electrons can be found in orbitals that surround the nucleus, which is made of protons and neutrons.

Do protons circle the nucleus of an atom?

Nuclei of atoms contain protons (+) and neutrons. The electrons (-) circle the nucleus on orbitals, forming the electron cloud. In a balanced or neutral atom, there will be the same number of protons in the nucleus as there are electrons outside of the nucleus. The number of neutrons can vary within the same element; that's how you get isotopes (e.g. Carbon-13 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 7 neutrons...The 13 is the atomic mass representing the sum of the protons and neutrons)
