No.
The cloud of electrons surround the atomic nucleus and, for each individual element, there are a different number of electrons in the cloud. This number of electrons is matched by the samenumber of protons in the atomic nucleus.
However, the atomic nucleus also contains neutrons, and there is a variable number of neutrons in the nucleus. It is this variation in the number of neutrons that makes the isotopes of an element.

What is the atom that loses or transfers an electron to another atom is called?
an isotope
What charge does the electron cloud of every atom have?
In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
What is the cloud of negatively charged particles that surrounds and atom?
The "Electron" cloud.
How is the electron cloud related to the modern model of an atom?
The atom where we are most likely to find an electron. this area is called the electron cloud.
What takes up most of the space of the atom?
The electron cloud or electron shell
What is the charge of the electron cloud in chlorine-37?
This isotope of chlorine has 17 electrons; the atom is neutral.
How can you use atom electron nucleus and electron cloud in the same sentence?
Electron in an atom is represented by electron cloud around the nucleus
Where is a electron cloud located?
The electron cloud in an atom is located outside of the nucleus.
What is the region of electrons?
The electrons of an atom are located in the electron cloud.
Is the electron cloud bigger than an atom?
Oh yes. Think of the atom as earth and an electron as the moon.
What is the atom that loses or transfers an electron to another atom is called?
an isotope
Which particle of an atom is in a cloud space?
We understand that the electron is the particle that is found in what is called the electron cloud around the nucleus of an atom.
What is the atoms electron cloud?
The distribution of electron around an atom in various shells is sometimes referred to as electron cloud. If there are more electrons in certain space around the atom, that space is said to have a denser electron cloud.
What charge does the electron cloud of every atom have?
In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
What are found in the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The space around the nucleus of an atom is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is the space in which the electrons of that atom travel. Compared to the nucleus, the electron cloud is enormous.
How can you use electron cloud in a sentence?
"The electron cloud is the space in the atom where the electrons orbit the nucleus."
What does an electron produce?
An electron produces an electron cloud when it is moved about a nucleus of an atom.
