electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in layers are called shells

What is the space around the nucleus of an atom where atoms electrons are found is called what?
They're called shells. But what those shells really are, are probability distributions as to where a collapsed solution to the Shrodinger equation may be.
electron configurations
Electron orbital.
It is called an electron configuration!
in the outer layers or shells of the atom around the nuclei or you can also say nucleus
Electrons orbit in electron clouds. They are in definite layers, and are lettered starting with K.
An atom is comprised of a nucleus of protons and neutrons, and layers of 'shells' in which the electrons revolve around the nucleus. An element is defined by the number of protons in the nucleus while the number of electrons on the outer shell define an atoms group on the periodic table. Then the number of neutrons is added to the number of protons to define the atomic weight of the atom.
Nucleus
Protons and neutrons form the nucleus of an atom while electrons form the shell of an atom. The electrons in the shell of the atom exist in distinct layers. Those in the outer layer take part in chemical reactions and are involved in electricity. Electrons are also basic particles called leptons. Protons and Neutrons are not basic particles but are composite particles called haldrons. They consist of three basic particles called quarks. Quarks are a basic particle called fermions.

orbit
this questions seems a bit unclear, but I will try my best: The electrons are located on the outermost part of the atom. Each electon in the layers (yes, there are multiple layers) travel in an elliptical path around the nucleus.hope it helps;)edit - if this also helps, electrons have an orbitalpath.

Electrons with different energy levels orbit in the different shells of the atom. The electrons located in the outer shell are called valence electrons, they have the most energy and are the ones who participate most in bonding.

couse cookies are coolEDIT: Okay, that's pretty random and not at all helpful, try this:Atoms are made up of 3 different particles, called electrons, protons and neutrons.Electrons are very small, very light particles with a negative electrical charge, and Protons are much larger, much heavier particles with a positive electrical charge. Neutrons are large and heavy, like the protons, but have no electrical charge.Each atom is made up of a mixture of these particles. Protons and neutrons are inside the nucleus of the atom, whilst the electrons orbit around it, in clouds. The electrons are organised in layers, called orbitals. The first level is called the 1s orbital, and contains 2 electrons. The second and third levels are the 2s and 2p orbitals and each contain 2 electrons. The 4th level is the 3s orbital, then the next is 3p etc. Logically, at this point, the next orbital would be the 3d orbital, but this has a higher energy than the 4s, so the 4s fill first, then the 3d, then the pattern continues.Hope this helps,Freya x
