by the butt of it
There is no exact location of the electron. The electron is outside the nucleus orbiting the center of the atom. You can't see it because it rotates so fast and is so small. So we can't indicate the exact location of the electron.
Around the atomic nucleus, on electron shells.
The most probable location of finding an electron in an atom is determined by the electron cloud orbital, which represents the regions where an electron is likely to be found. These regions are shaped by the probability distribution function of the electron within an atom, as described by quantum mechanics.
When you add an electron to an atom, the atom becomes negatively charged and is called an anion. When you subtract an electron from an atom, the atom becomes positively charged and is called a cation.
That would be the electron cloud. This is like the orbital model where there are electrons in each orbit level but the electron's location can not be predicted so it is said to be most likely at a point in the electron cloud.
The location of an electron is circling the outside of an atom.

yes
in the third shell, an electron has more energy and is further from the nucleus
The Quantum Mechanical model of the atom states that the location of the electrons around the atom cannot be precisely determined. The region where the electron can probably be found is known as the electron cloud.
In an electron cloud, which a probability range circling around the atom. Due to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, both an electron's location and speed can not be known at the same time. Therefore, a range is created.
The electron can either be by itself outside of an atom, or can be in an atom in a series of energy 'shells' outside of the nucleus.
the most probable location of an electron
Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom. The exact location of a specific electron, however, can not be known for certain. The general area where the electron might be found is in its orbital.
the most probable location of an electron
An atomic orbital is a region in an atom in which there is a high probability of finding electrons.
The negatively charged particles of an atom are in an outer shell.
