The quantum mechanics model of the atom indicates that electrons orbit the atomic nucleus in an electron cloud. Electrons orbit the nucleus in discrete energy levels within the electron cloud.

Are electrons located in energy levels or electron cloud?
Electrons are located in energy levels within the electron cloud.
What do you call the region of an atom in which electrons move?
The region of an atom in which the electrons move is called the electron shell, or electron cloud.
What is the region of space where electrons move about the nucleus of an atom?
The Electron Cloud
What is a region around the nucleus in which electrons move about?
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
What subatomic particle occupies the cloudlike space that surrounds the atom's core?
The electrons occupy the electron cloud. It is not a cloud at all; it is simply a region where electrons are most likely to be found.
What is the region of electrons?
The electrons of an atom are located in the electron cloud.
Are electrons located in energy levels or electron cloud?
Electrons are located in energy levels within the electron cloud.
What do you call the region of an atom in which electrons move?
The region of an atom in which the electrons move is called the electron shell, or electron cloud.
Region surrounding the nucleus in which the electrons move about?
electron cloud
It is the region where electrons are most likely located?
the electron cloud
What is the region around the nucleus where electrons are found?
The electron cloud. An electron cloud is a volume or region in the atom where it is likely to find or detect an electron. It is actually really hard to detect an electron because an atom is mostly empty space, electrons are orbiting the nucleus at almost the speed of light so they orbit really fast, the electrons are very tiny and may be point like since we don't really know the volume or size of the electron, and an atom in reality is 3 dimensional which the electron cloud and orbitals is 3 dimensional. Since electrons are so hard to detect then they would call this volume or region of the atom an electron cloud because the electron cloud is a volume or region where they know that electrons are likely to be there even if they are hard to find. Or maybe the electron cloud is where they can also know the different sub- orbitals or subshells of the electrons.

What is a region around the nucleus in which electrons move about?
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
What are the region around the nucleus where the electrons are located called?
electron cloud
What is the arrangement of electrons within the electron cloud of an atom?
Energy Levels
What is found in the electron cloud of an atom?
I think the word you're looking for is "electron cloud". That term already describes where electrons are found. It would be kind of silly to define "electron cloud" in such a way that it describes an area where electrons are not found, wouldn't it?
What subatomic particle occupies the cloudlike space that surrounds the atom's core?
The electrons occupy the electron cloud. It is not a cloud at all; it is simply a region where electrons are most likely to be found.
