electrons orbit around the nucleus
Electrons can not be located in one specific place, but are sort of "spread" over their orbit. When doing an experiment to find their location, there is a certain probability of finding it within a certain unit of volume. The word "cloud" is supposed to conjure an image of this behavior of the electron.
this is called the absolute location
Electrons surround the nucleus of an atom in patterns called electron shells.
The charge on electrons is equal to -1.6 X 10-19 C. According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, we cannot have the exact location of an electron, only we can have the region where the probability of finding an electron is high.
The atom is comprised of a nucleus that is surrounded by negatively charged electrons. These electrons can be further sub-divided into quarks, and other sub, sub atomic particles.
The electrons located in the outer shell are called "valence electrons".
Electrons are naturally to be found in shells surrounding atomic nuclei.
those areas, where electrons are located in an atom, are called ORBITS
Electrons are located in the electron cloud outside of the nucleus (the nucleus is made by the other two particles, neutrons and protons).
valence electrons
Within an atom the protons and neutrons are located at the center of the atom, the location is called the nucleus.

well, first you have to understand that elements are made up of atoms. atoms contain protons, neutrons and electrons. the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. the protons and neutrons are located in the mucleus, while the electrons are located in the outer rings of the atoms. the first ring can hold a maximum of 2 electrons and the second and third can hold a maximum of 8 each up to element number 20. They are usually drawn in pairs. For example, look at this potassium atom. The electrons are on the outer shells.
The peninsula on which Greece is located is called Attica.
Yes, they are located in the outer layer called the shell.
The general location of electrons in a covalent bond is that electrons are shared in pairs between 2 atoms. If 2 electrons pairs are shared, 4 electrons are shared in all.
