Electrons. Electrons are also made up of quarks but you dont have to go that far if you arent in an advanced class.
Electrons are found in an atom's outer shell. The outer shell, also known as the valence shell, is where the electrons involved in chemical reactions and bonding are located. The number of electrons in the outer shell determines the atom's chemical properties.
valence electrons are the electrons located in the outer shell of an atom which are available for reaction
The electrons located in the outer shell are called "valence electrons".
Electrons are not located in the nucleus of an atom.

The outer shell of an atom is the valence shell, which contains the valence electrons.
An oxygen atom has six (6) electrons in its outer shell.
A neutral neon atom has 8 electrons in its outer shell. Neon has a total of 10 electrons, with 2 in the inner shell and 8 in the outer shell.

Valence shell
The electrons of an atom that are involved in a chemical bond are located in the outermost energy level, known as the valence shell. These electrons are called valence electrons and determine the atom's reactivity and ability to form bonds with other atoms.
