It is called the electron cloud, the volume in which electrons are most likely to be found. This area is given by Schrodinger's wave equation, which defines psi, the wave function, which squared (psi2) is the probability density. Thus, high probability density equates high electron density. so get over it!

Where is the electron most likely to be found in the nucleus of an atom?
An atom mostly consists of empty space. Electrons revolve around the nucleus in a fixed orbit .
Where can electrons be found?
The most likely place you might find an electron is orbiting the nucleus of an atom. They could also be found forming magnetic fields, generating light patterns in the phosphor of cathode-ray tube televisions, zooming around in live electrical wiring, being generated by cosmic ray collisions in the upper atmosphere, and forming the hot plasma of lightning strikes (no particular order).
Which of these takes up the most space in an atom?
The thing that takes up the most space of an atom at about 99.99% of the size of the atom is empty space. The majority of the remaining 0.01% is found in the nucleus and about 0.00001% of the atom is taken by the electrons.
Where is the proton located in an atom?
In the nucleus of the atom, along with neutrons. The electrons are found around the nucleus. If the atom was the size of a Baseball stadium, the nucleus would be the size of a baseball! Most of the space in an atom is taken up by the electron cloud which surrounds the nucleus. That is why atoms are actually mostly empty space.
Where can no sound be found?
Space.
Where on an atom can electrons can be found?
Electrons can be found in regions of space around the nucleus called electron shells or energy levels. These shells are designated by the principal quantum number, with the first shell closest to the nucleus and subsequent shells further away. Within each shell, electrons occupy specific orbitals, which are specific regions where electrons are most likely to be found.
What subatomic particle occupies the cloudlike space that surrounds the atom's core?
The electrons occupy the electron cloud. It is not a cloud at all; it is simply a region where electrons are most likely to be found.
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.
Where is the electron most likely to be found in the nucleus of an atom?
An atom mostly consists of empty space. Electrons revolve around the nucleus in a fixed orbit .
What is found in between electrons and the protons?
The space is empty, total vacuum.
What are the particles called in the space around the nucleus?
these particles are called quarks
Where can electrons be found?
The most likely place you might find an electron is orbiting the nucleus of an atom. They could also be found forming magnetic fields, generating light patterns in the phosphor of cathode-ray tube televisions, zooming around in live electrical wiring, being generated by cosmic ray collisions in the upper atmosphere, and forming the hot plasma of lightning strikes (no particular order).
What is the large space surrounding the atomic nucleus that is orbiting electrons that can be found?
This space is only absolute vacuum.
What is the space called where the electrons move around the nucleus?
Orbitals
What is the space outside the nucleus that contains the electrons called?
shells or orbit
What is a large space surrouding atomic nucleus in which orbiting electrons can be found?
This an electron cloud.
What is the electron cloud called?
Not exactly. An electron is an actual physical particle with a negative charge. An electron cloud is (generally) a spherical area around the nucleus of an atom that predicts where the electrons might be located.
