What is the region around the nucleus where electrons are found?

The electron cloud. An electron cloud is a volume or region in the atom where it is likely to find or detect an electron. It is actually really hard to detect an electron because an atom is mostly empty space, electrons are orbiting the nucleus at almost the speed of light so they orbit really fast, the electrons are very tiny and may be point like since we don't really know the volume or size of the electron, and an atom in reality is 3 dimensional which the electron cloud and orbitals is 3 dimensional. Since electrons are so hard to detect then they would call this volume or region of the atom an electron cloud because the electron cloud is a volume or region where they know that electrons are likely to be there even if they are hard to find. Or maybe the electron cloud is where they can also know the different sub- orbitals or subshells of the electrons.


What are the region around the nucleus where the electrons are located called?

The region around the nucleus where the electrons are located is called the electron cloud or electron shell. Electrons exist in specific energy levels within these shells, determined by their distance from the nucleus.


How many electrons can be the first energy level in the electron cloud hold?

The first energy level in the electron cloud can hold a maximum of 2 electrons.

Argon has 18 electrons in its electron cloud.


What is the charge on the cloud or shell of the atom?

The charge of an electron cloud is negative. The electron cloud is made up of electrons, and the electrons are negatively charged. The electron cloud will have a negative charge as well.

What is the aggregate of electrons around the nucleus of an atom?

The number of electrons in a neutral atom will equal the number of protons; the electrons are arranged in concentric shells (at least for atoms heavier than helium; hydrogen and helium both have only one shell, not concentric shells).


Are electrons located in energy levels or electron cloud?

Electrons are located in energy levels within the electron cloud.


How many electrons are in argons cloud?

Argon is atomic number 18. It would therefore have 18 protons. Having 18 protons would mean that Argon must also have 18 electrons.

What do you call the region of an atom in which electrons move?

The region of an atom in which the electrons move is called the electron shell, or electron cloud.


What particles are located in the electron cloud?

The electron cloud contains electrons, which are negatively charged particles that orbit the atomic nucleus. The cloud also contains other subatomic particles such as protons and neutrons in the nucleus, which contribute to the overall structure of an atom.
