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.

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
In an atom electrons are what?
valence electrons are the electrons located in the outer shell of an atom which are available for reaction
What are valence electrons in an atom?
valence electrons are the electrons located in the outer shell of an atom which are available for reaction
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.
If an atom has 7 electrons how many electrons are located in the second energy level?
An atom with seven electrons will have five electrons in the second energy level.
Where electrons located?
in the electron cloud of an atom.
Where are proton neutrons electrons loacted on the atom?
the protons and neutrons are in the nucleus of the atom the electrons are located in the outer orbits
Where in the atom are the electrons that are used to form bonds located?
The electrons that participate in chemical bonds are located in the "valence shell" or outer energy level of that atom. They are known as the valence electrons, and they are the only part of the atom that participates in a chemical reaction.
How do you figure out the core charge of an atom?
the atomic core charge of an atom is the same as the number of valence electrons in the atom
How many electrons can be on a outer shell of a nucleus?
Electrons are not located in the nucleus of an atom.
What is the region of electrons?
The electrons of an atom are located in the electron cloud.
What are regions in atoms where electrons reside?
Electrons are located in 'shells' around the core of on atom. They are never inside the core of an atom.
