Around the atomic nucleus, on electron shells.
Electrons are found in electron shells surrounding the nucleus of an atom. They move rapidly within these shells, which are composed of energy levels that determine the electron's distance from the nucleus.
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.
The region around a nucleus where an electron might be found is called an electron cloud or electron orbital. It represents the probability of finding an electron at a specific location based on its energy level. The electron cloud is a three-dimensional representation of where an electron is likely to be located within an atom.
Electrons are most commonly found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom. The exact location of an electron within this cloud cannot be pinpointed precisely due to the probabilistic nature of electron behavior described by quantum mechanics.

Electrons are found in the electron cloud that surrounds the nucleus.

The location of an electron is circling the outside of an atom.
Electrons are found in electron shells surrounding the nucleus of an atom. They move rapidly within these shells, which are composed of energy levels that determine the electron's distance from the nucleus.
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.
The electron's definite energy is based on it's location around the nucleus
The electron orbits around the nucleus of a molecule, where the neutrons and protons are.
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.
Electrons are located in the electron cloud outside of the nucleus (the nucleus is made by the other two particles, neutrons and protons).
The 3 dimensional region around a nucleus where an electron is likely to be found is called an electron cloud or electron orbital. This region represents the probability of finding an electron at a particular location within the atom.
