What is the area surrounding the atom where electrons are located?

Its called the electron shell. Electrons will always fill up low orbitals first in the shell, an then as more energy is added to the atom, the electrons move up an orbit, then release the energy in some form, and they move back down to the lowest energy orbit.

No its not....
Wiki User
∙ 9y agoElectrons of an atom are located in a diffuse electron cloud, where each point represents a probability of finding an electron. These electron clouds are called orbitals.

What are found in the space surrounding the nucleus of an atom?
The space around the nucleus of an atom is called the electron cloud. The electron cloud is the space in which the electrons of that atom travel. Compared to the nucleus, the electron cloud is enormous.
What is the area surrounding nucleus of atom called?
Electron Cloud
What is electronic shells?
A shell surrounding the nucleus of an atom containing electrons.
What makes an atom?
an atom has two subatomic particles which are neutrons and protons in the nucleus or "center" and electrons surrounding the nucleus in orbitals, "orbit like" regions of space outside the nucleus.
What orbits in layers in the atom?
Electrons with different energy levels orbit in the different shells of the atom. The electrons located in the outer shell are called valence electrons, they have the most energy and are the ones who participate most in bonding.
Electrons are located in a cloud surrounding what part of the atom?
Nucleus.
Location of electrons?
Electrons are naturally to be found in shells surrounding atomic nuclei.
Where are the protons electrons and electrons located in an atom?
The protons and neutrons a in the middle while the electrons circle the outer area of the atom's field.
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.

Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom?
The atom is composed of two parts, the nucleus, which contains the Protons and neutrons, and is positively charged; and the negative electrons surrounding it.
Particle surrounding the center of an atom that have a charge?
Electrons
Where are an atom's electrons found?
In the orbitals surrounding the nucleus.
The space surrounding the nucleus the nucleus of an atom contains?
Electrons
Which subatomic particle is found in the orbital of an atom?
The centre of an atom contains protons and neutrons, while the surrounding sub-atomic particles are called electrons.
Neutrons are negatively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom?
Yes and no. Electrons are negatively charged, but the are not found within the nucleus.
Where is the subatomic particles located?
Protons and neutrons are in the center of an atom in the nucleus. Electrons are dispersed around the nucleus.
What is the name of the areas in which electrons are located in an atom?
those areas, where electrons are located in an atom, are called ORBITS
