There are two main parts of an atom. The one that contains the most mass is the nucleus, which holds all of the protons and neutrons in a ball at the center of the atom. The second part is the cloud of electrons that orbit the nucleus. So, protons are found in the nucleus of an atom.
Atoms are made of a nucleus that is surrounded by electron clouds. The nucleus is formed from all the atom's protons and neutrons. Proton and neutrons are made up of even smaller particles called quarks.
The nucleus of a helium atom is composed of two protons and two neutrons. Alpha particles have the same composition as the nucleus of a helium atom.
Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus, and electrons are in the cloud that surrounds it.
In the most widely taught atomic model, the atom's two main parts are the nucleus and the electron cloud. The nucleus is the ultra-dense core of the atom, containing large, heavy protons and neutrons (large and heavy are of course comparative measures - they are both infinitesimal). The electron cloud is the area around the nucleus in which the negatively charged electrons orbit (possibly) the nucleus. Think of the Sun and the Planets and you've got the right idea, only it's a bit more complicated with the Atom. The electrons do not move in their orbitals exclusively; when the system gains or loses energy they are rife to jump from one to another, emitting or absorbing light. Also, the electrons' positions cannot be known certainly. Thus, the electron cloud - an area in which electrons might be orbiting.

Two protons and (two) neutrons inside the nucleus of the atom. Two electrons outside the nucleus.
Protons and Neutrons
The atom is composed of two parts, the nucleus, which contains the Protons and neutrons, and is positively charged; and the negative electrons surrounding it.

Atoms actually have two parts, the nucleus (in the center) and the electron cloud (surrounding the nucleus) however the parts also have parts. A nucleus either has just a proton (in the case of the lightest hydrogen isotope) or it contains both protons and neutrons. And protons and neutrons in turn are composed of quarks. So if you look at an atom in finer detail, you can break it down to quarks and electrons.
its proton and its nucleus will have two protons so its electron and atom

every atom has not 2 parts but 30 parts! WOW!
