Where are electrons located in atoms?
Nucleus
Electron Areas
Electron Orbitals
Isotopes
Answer explanation
Electrons in atoms are located in areas known as electron orbitals. These are not physical locations, but rather probability areas where an electron can be found. The other options, such as the nucleus and isotopes, relate to different parts of an atom or atomic variations, while 'electron areas' is not a specific term in atomic structure.

Where are neutrons located in atoms?
Nucleus
Electron Areas
Electron Orbitals
Isotopes
Answer explanation
Neutrons, together with protons, make up the nucleus of an atom. The nucleus is the central part of the atom. The other options, such as electron areas or electron orbitals, are where electrons reside, not neutrons. And isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number, not a location in an atom.
