Nothing. When speaking of atoms, forget you ever heard the word "orbit", because it's based on a long-discredited atomic model that doesn't even come close to describing what's actually going on.
Electrons are in orbitals, which are localized probability distributions. I know it sounds like "orbit", but it's actually something very very much different, and the more quickly you get the picture of atoms as little solar systems out of your head, the better off you will be.
But the main point is that there are electrons in these "orbitals", and they circulate round the nucleus.

What is a group of electrons orbiting at roughly the same distance from the nucleus called?
electron cloud
What are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucles of an atom?
An electron is a negatively charged particle orbiting the atom's nucleus.
What are the the small particles called in a in Adam?
The subatomic particles found in an atom are the protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus, and the electrons which are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
What is the structure around the nucleus called?
In the cell, it is called the nuclear membrane. Inside the nucleus is DNA and nucleoplasm.
Compare the position of the electrons in bohr's model of the atom with their positions according to modern atomic theory?
The Bohr atom imagined that electrons orbit the nucleus in much the same way that planets orbit the sun. The modern atomic model has electrons in the form of a cloud that surrounds the nucleus without actually moving in orbit around it. Moving electrons would have to emit photons, lose energy, and spiral into the nucleus, thus destroying the atom. They don't really orbit.
What type of charge does the cloud surrounding the nucleus possess?
It isn't a physical cloud, it is the area electrons orbits are found in. While this is true, it is actually called an "electron cloud" because the electrons that spin around the nucleus are spinning around it so fast.
What is a blur of electrons around the nucleus of an atom called?
What is a blur of electrons around the nucleus of an atom called?an electron cloud. not neutron
What is the location called where the electrons are located?
electrons orbit around the nucleus
What are particles that moves around the nucleus is called?
electrons
What particles might be found in shells around a nucleus?
The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.
What is the space called where the electrons move around the nucleus?
Orbitals
Buzzing around the outside of a nucleus is called?
If you are talking about elements, they are electrons.
Electrons are located where in an atom?
The electrons in an atom are located in what is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is an "area of probability" where electrons may be. The electrons actually occupy fixed energy levels, the so-called Fermi energy levels, around the nucleus of the atom, and we identify these energy levels as shells and orbitals.

Where are electron found in an atom and describe their movement?
Electrons are located out side the nucleus in atom, and these are called as extra nuclear particles. Electrons are revolving around the nucleus as planets do round the sun
What is the negativity charged particles that move around the nucleus called?
Electrons
What are negative charges around the nucleus?
Electrons, or as the discoverer of them called them: corpucles.
A particle that moves around the nucleus is a what?
These particles are called electrons.
