Shells.
There were many scientists that worked on trying to prove that atoms exist. Neils Bohr was one of the first to discover that atoms had three parts and the electrons orbited the nucleus in 1913.
No, protons, neutrons, and electrons are not elements. Protons and neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms, while electrons orbit the nucleus. Elements are substances made up of one type of atom, characterized by the number of protons in their nucleus.
Yes, electrons are one of the fundamental building blocks of matter. They have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus of atoms, playing a crucial role in chemical reactions and electricity conduction.
No, an electron is a subatomic particle that is not composed of atoms. It is one of the fundamental particles that make up an atom, along with protons and neutrons. Electrons are negatively charged and orbit the nucleus of an atom.
Yes, all atoms have a nucleus! The Nucleus is the part of the atom which holds the Protons and Neutrons, the Electrons orbit the "atomic nucleus". The atomic nucleus is different to the nucleus of a cell, which holds genetic information and allows the cell to operate. Answer above provided by Runehally16.

All atoms have electrons that orbit the nucleus, we are concerned with the outermost orbit. The outer orbit shell can have from 1 to 8 electrons. The fewer electrons an atom has in this orbit the better it is at conduction (one or two electrons, it is easy to knock one of the electrons out of orbit and pass to the next atom). The more electrons you have, the better it is at insulating. Nothing is a perfect insulator, if you apply enough voltage the electrons will move (current will flow). This is why the insulation on conductors have a voltage rating.

Electrons don't jump from the nucleus, because there are no electrons in the nucleus. They DO jump, or can jump from one orbit to another. If it jumps to a higher orbit, then energy must be added, and if it jumps, or falls to a lower orbit, energy is released.
There is only one nucleus in the atom hydrogen because it is a single element. It isn't a compound therefor it only has one nucleus to its makeup. There is only one nucleus in all atoms. The nucleus is the center of an atom. It holds the protons and neutrons of the atom while the electrons orbit the nucleus in the electron cloud.

An atom contains protons, neutrons, and electrons, electrons being the one that moves around the nucleus. The other two are in the nucleus.
The electrostatic force between the positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons is responsible for keeping electrons in orbit around the nucleus. This force acts as a centripetal force, keeping the electrons in their orbit.
The nucleus is the center of an atom and is made up of protons and neutrons. Electrons freely orbit around the nucleus.
Atoms all have a similar structure - they have a nucleus surrounded by one or more electrons. Each nucleus is made of protons and neutrons. All atoms of a particular element all have the same number of protons and electrons, and usually have the same number of neutrons too (although sometimes these differ) in all their atoms. Different elements have different amounts of these fundamental particles in their atoms. The first few elements (in terms of numbers of protons starting with 1, 2 3 etc) have numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons as follows: Hydrogen: 1 proton and 0 neutrons in the nucleus and 1 electron in orbit around it. Helium: 2 protons and 2 neutrons in the nucleus and 2 electrons in orbit around it. Lithium: 3 protons and 4 neutrons in the nucleus and 3 electrons in orbit around it. Beryllium: 4 protons and 5 neutrons in the nucleus and 4 electrons in orbit around it. Boron: 5 protons and 5 neutrons in the nucleus and 5 electrons in orbit around it. Carbon: 6 protons and 6 neutrons in the nucleus and 6 electrons in orbit around it. Nitrogen: 7 protons and 7 neutrons in the nucleus and 7 electrons in orbit around it. Oxygen: 8 protons and 8 neutrons in the nucleus and 8 electrons in orbit around it. So, the only difference between any of the elements e.g. oxygen and nitrogen is the number of particles in the atoms of each gas. Just as the words 'GOD' and 'DOG' represent totally different things despite being made of the same letters, all the elements in the universe from hydrogen to iron, from gold to tin are all different, look different, behave differently and so on, simply because, in their atoms they have different numbers of the fundamental particles, protons, neutrons and electrons.
