If the atom of Cobalt is neutral, it's amount of electrons will be the same as the number of protons. The number of protons in the atom is the same as the mass number (the number you see on the Periodic Table). However, if it is not a neutral atom, there could be an infinite amount of possibilities.
The above answer is true in that the number of electrons of an element will normally equal the number of protons. However, it is the atomic number, not the mass number, that tells you the number of protons (and, therefore, electrons) in a single atom of an element. The atomic number of Cobalt is 27, therefore 27 protons, 27 electrons.
Its average atomic weight is 58.9 which is the combined weight of its protons and neutrons - all other sub-atomic particles such as electrons are presumed to weigh nothing, or nearly so.
Cobalt has many isotopes, of which Co58 is one, but each will have the same number of protons and electrons. They will differ in atomic weight due to a difference in the number of neutrons.
Neithr!!! An atom of Cobalt contains 27 electrons.
The ground-state electron configuration of a neutral cobalt atom is [Ar] 3d7 4s2. This means that cobalt has two electrons in the 4s orbital and seven electrons in the 3d orbital.
the outer shell of cobalt contains 9 electrons.
There are three unpaired electrons in an atom of cobalt in its ground state. This can be determined by the electron configuration of cobalt, which is [Ar] 4s2 3d7. The 3d orbital has 5 electrons, so there are 3 unpaired electrons.
In a cobalt atom, there are 27 electrons. This number is found by looking at the atomic number of cobalt on the periodic table, which is 27. Electrons are equal in number to the protons in a neutral atom.

In an electron cloud, which a probability range circling around the atom. Due to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, both an electron's location and speed can not be known at the same time. Therefore, a range is created.
I suppose on some atom models the electron cloud would be called "fuzzy".

The particle not found in the nucleus is the electron
The electron in a hydrogen atom is most likely to be found in the 1s orbital.
The electrons are found in the electron shells
Inside the atom, revolving around the nucleus
