An atom is made of a core + electrons .The core is made of positive charges held together by neutral charges. The electrons, negative charges, orbit round it.
If there is 5 positive charges in the core, 5 electrons would orbit around it. Otherwise it's not called an atom anymore, but a ion.

∙ 13y agoDo you mean "Where"?
Electrons are a part of the atom, therefore, the answer to your question "When" is that electrons always reside in an atom. However, if you mean "where," an atom contains Protons and Neutrons in its Nucleus, and the Electrons reside in what is commonly referred to as an "electron cloud" outside of the nucleus.

This is also called the electron cloud.
The first energy level can only hold 2 electrons, the second can hold uo to 8, and the rest go in the third and there's usually none left over after that.
The electrons on the outer level are called valence electrons.

∙ 9y agoThe electron is located in the electon cloud around the nuclues. some people may say a cloud but it is a electron cloud. hope this helps. Also You can add clouds to make a electron2 cloud

What is the name for the positively charged center of an atom?
The three main particles in an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons orbit around the atoms where the others 'reside' in the center. Protons are positively charged where neutrons have no charge.
An atomic orbital is best described as?
Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electron. Both the protons and neutrons reside in the nucleus. Electrons reside in orbitals around the nucleus. Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge.
How many electrons are found in carbon atom?
A single atom of Carbon has 6 electrons, with 4 in the outer shell which it will use to react
How many electrons in an atom of nitrogen?
A nitrogen atom has seven electrons.
How many electrons does an arsenic atom have?
There are 33 electrons in an Arsenic atom.
Where electrons reside in the atom.?
the shell
Electrons reside in the atom?
In the orbit around an atom - not in the nucleus
Where electrons reside in a atom?
They spin around the nucleus.
Where do electrons protons and neutrons reside within an atom?
Protons and neutrons reside within the nucleus, electrons orbit around the nucleus.
What are regions in atoms where electrons reside?
Electrons are located in 'shells' around the core of on atom. They are never inside the core of an atom.
Which electron in an atom are the valence electrons?
The valence electrons are the outermost electrons, i.e. those that reside in the outermost energy level.
How many electrons may occupy the innermost shell of an atom?
Only 2 electrons can reside in the innermost shell.
Where do electron proton& neutron reside within an atom?
Protons and neutrons reside within the nucleus, electrons orbit around the nucleus.
Is it true that the negatively charged particles in an atom are called electrons?
It is indeed true and these reside around the atom, away from the nucleus
What is the name of the positively charge particles in the center of an atom?
The three main particles in an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons orbit around the atoms where the others 'reside' in the center. Protons are positively charged where neutrons have no charge.
What is the name of the positively charged particles in the center atom?
The three main particles in an atom are the protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons orbit around the atoms where the others 'reside' in the center. Protons are positively charged where neutrons have no charge.
Where are the protons and neutrons is an atom found?
Atoms are composed of three types of particles: protons, neutrons, and electron. Both the protons and neutrons reside in the nucleus. Protons have a positive (+) charge, neutrons have no charge they are neutral. Electrons reside in orbitals around the nucleus. They have a negative charge (-).
