In reality, the electrons are on different energy levels at different distances in a sort of cloud around the nucleus. Traditionally, this is simplified and drawn as a series of 'rings' at different distances from the nucleus.
The electrons are filled in the order: 2, 8, 18, 18, 8 where 2 is the inner most shell electons and 8 is the outer most shell
It is called the electron cloud.
what is the area outside the nucleus where electrons are found
The particles found in the area surrounding the nucleus are called electrons. Electrons are attracted to the protons in the nucleus, but are repelled from other electrons. This is why they can be found orbiting the nucleus.
The central part of an atom is called the nucleus. Which contains electrons, protons and neutrons.
do you mean outside of a nucleus?if so, electronsAnother AnswerIf we were small enough to see the individual parts of an atom, outside the atom would be more space. As we get larger, heading back to our own size, at a certain scale we would see the atom's vibration and ripples in space turn into the molecular boundary. As we continue to return to our normal size, we would see the billions of atoms in a cubic mm. As we reach our normal size, we would see the normal world which is made up from the countless number of molecules/atoms arraigned in incredible combinations.
Around the atomic nucleus, on electron shells.
what is the area outside the nucleus where electrons are found
The three subatomic particles are the proton, the neutron, and the electron. Protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus. Electrons are located outside of the nucleus in the electron cloud.
In quantum mechanics, electrons exist in a cloud-shaped area outside the nucleus. I found the concepts mind-blowing and it took me a couple of weeks to get comfortable with it.

The area where the electron can be found is an orbital cloud. Because of a quirk in quantum physics, it is impossible to determine where an electron is exactly, only where it might be.

The center of an atom is the nucleus. In it are the protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged particles and neutrons are electrically neutral. Some forms of hydrogen don't have and neutrons which is an exception.
