In general, the nucleus and the electron cloud are the two distinct features of the volume of the atom. The nucleus is home to the proton(s) and whatever neutrons are present, and the electron cloud is where the electrons all hang out. The nucleus, with its protons and neutrons, has most of an atom's mass concentrated there. The electrons are relatively far away, and the orbits they describe give the atom its "shape" by defining its volume in space.

4
In the wave - mechanical model of the atom orbitals are regions of the most probable locations of?
Electrons
What are electrons called that inhabit regions of levels the atom?
They are still just called electrons , they don't have a different name.
What are the names of the elements in Hydrogen peroxide?
2 hydrogen atom and 2 oxygen atom
Are charges balanced in an atom?
A balanced atom is an atom that has it's outer energy level (AKA shell) completely filled in with 8 valence electrons.
What are the two regions of an atom What?
The two major regions of an atom are the atomic nucleus and the electron rings surrounding it.
What are two main regions of an atom?
Nucleus and electrons
What are regions in atoms where electrons reside?
Electrons are located in 'shells' around the core of on atom. They are never inside the core of an atom.
How many regions of high electron density surround the central atom in CH4?
4
What are the two regions of atom?
The atomic nucleus and the cloud of electrons.
In the wave - mechanical model of the atom orbitals are regions of the most probable locations of?
Electrons
Regions inside the atom where electrons are likely to be found are called?
An atomic orbital is a region in an atom in which there is a high probability of finding electrons.
Nucleus of a helium atom?
there are 2 protons in a helium atom there are 2 protons in a helium atom
What makes an atom?
an atom has two subatomic particles which are neutrons and protons in the nucleus or "center" and electrons surrounding the nucleus in orbitals, "orbit like" regions of space outside the nucleus.
What are electrons called that inhabit regions of levels the atom?
They are still just called electrons , they don't have a different name.
Why is SO2 three charge cloud?
Because the central atom has two bonded regions (remember that single, double, and triple bonds all count as one charge cloud). In addition to the two bond regions, there is a lone pair of electrons on the central atom, which counts as the third charge cloud.
When an atom becomes an ion with a negative 2 charge the atom?
Gained 2 electrons
