1-5-12 in an atom, what does each of your five pieces do?

In an atom, what does each of your five pieces do?

There are five pieces to an atom and they are: The electron cloud, the nucleus, protons, neutrons, and the electrons. The electron cloud is on the outside of the atom, and gives it a negative charge. The nucleus is in the middle of the atom, and the nucleus has 2 out of the 3 subatomic particles. The protons give off a positive charge, while the neutrons give off a negative charge. They interact with eachother, but the electrons have a small mass. Formula: e-= p= atomic #.
