Werner Heisenberg developed this principle, known as the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle.
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 charge on electrons is equal to -1.6 X 10-19 C. According to Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, we cannot have the exact location of an electron, only we can have the region where the probability of finding an electron is high.
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to simultaneously know both the exact position and momentum of a particle. In contrast, the Bohr model of hydrogen assumes a well-defined orbit for electrons which violates this principle. This conflict led to the development of quantum mechanics, which describes the behavior of particles more accurately.
No, that's not how it works. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that there is a limit to how precisely you can measure position and momentum simultaneously. Actually, it's not just about measuring, position and momentum are not DEFINED at the same time, with arbitrary precision.An electron can very well move slowly, but the Uncertainty Principle still applies.
Wave models describe electrons as both particles and waves. They predict the probability distribution of finding an electron in a specific location around the nucleus of an atom, rather than a specific trajectory. The wave nature of electrons is central to quantum mechanics and explains various phenomena such as electron diffraction and the quantization of energy levels in atoms.
Werner Heisenberg proposed the uncertainty principle, which states that it is impossible to simultaneously know both the exact position and exact velocity of a particle, such as an electron. This principle is a fundamental concept in quantum mechanics.
According to modern physics, the exact location of an electron within an atom is uncertain. This uncertainty is described by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which states that it is impossible to simultaneously know the exact position and momentum of a particle.

One cannot accurately predict where in the electron cloud an electron can be found because of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. This states that the position and the velocity of an object cannot both be measured exactly, at the same time, and since we can determine the velocity of the electron, knowing the location with certainty is not possible. The main reason behind this is that as soon as you "look" at the electron, using whatever method available, you will by the very nature of looking at it, alter its position.
The exact location of an electron can not be known. Electrons' locations can be merely estimated. Electron "clouds" or orbitals are general areas where an electron is likely to be found. There is always uncertainty as to where the electron actually is.
According to modern atomic theory, it is nearly impossible to determine an electron's exact position and momentum simultaneously. This is known as the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, which states that the more precisely one property is measured, the less precisely the other can be known.
A wave does not have a discrete position, it has an area, a line defining its location maybe, but never a point. You can say that a wave has a focus point (a circular wave has a center) but such a point is not where any part of the wave is - where it was maybe - but not where it now is.The fact that an electron is a wave (we may think of it as one in certain circumstances) ensures that it does not have a definite position.

I think you are referring to the 3 quantum numbers, n, l m; principal azimuthal and magnetic. Together with the spin quantum number they "define" an electron- but I would hesitate to call this the electrons location- Heisenbergs uncertainty principle gets in the way of a simultaneous knowledge of energy and location.
