An atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by one or more electrons. The nucleus is the very small center core of an atom. The nucleus is a group of smaller particles called protons and neutrons. Protons have a positive electric charge (indicated by a plus symbol, p+).

∙ 6y agoIn the old Bohr Theory of how atoms were constructed the electrons omitted the nucleus of the atom lake a tiny planetary system. Modern theory have done away with this image replacing it with probability cloud where electrons are most likely to be. They don't move around the nucleus they just are more likely to be near it in specific locations

What is the tiny particle of an atom that moves around the nucleus?
The particle that "circles" the center of an atom is an electron. (In reality, electrons act more like waves vibrating around an atom that particle circling an atom.) (Both neutrons and protons make up the center of an atom, neutrons have no charge and protons a positive one.)
What moves around outside the nucleus of an atom?
A electron moves outside of an atom. <3
In the modern quantum based atomic theory what is the name given to a particular space around the nucleus in which an electron moves?
The name given to a particular space around the nucleus in which an electron moves is Orbital
What are electrons in a atom?
In the electron cloud. In the electronic shells which vary from one element to another They surround the nucleus in a cloud-type formation. This can help you during your science mid-term so pay attention!
What moves around the nucleus of an atom?
Electrons, which are a type of fermion, orbit the nucleus of atoms. Remember, though, that they do not actually orbit or "move around" the nucleus, but instead are in a superposition of states, which we usually describe as an electron density, or the probability of locating an electron at a certain distance and time.
What is the negative particle of an atom that moves rapidly around the nucleus?
The negative particle that circles the nucleus is the electron.
Is the particle of an atom that moves rapidly in the cloudlike region around the nucleus?
electrons
Is electron the particle that rapidly moves around the outside of the nucleus and carries a negative charge?
yes it is electron
A particle that moves rapidly in all directions in the space outside the nucleus is called a?
Electron
The particle that moves around the nucleus is?
Electrons move around the atomic nucleus.
A negatively charged subatomic particle that moves around the nucleus is a proton?
The negatively charged subatomic particle that moves around the nucleus is the electron. The proton, along with the neutron, comprises the nucleus.
What moves rapidly around the nucleus?
Electron(s)
What is the particle of an atom that moves rapidly in the cloudlike region around the nucleus?
