Electron

Real World Example

Imagine trying to find a parking spot in a crowded city where all the good spots are taken, and you have to circle around the block multiple times. In a similar way, electrons are like these cars trying to find a place around the atom's nucleus, constantly moving and never quite settling in one spot. Just as cars are negatively impacted by the frustration of limited parking, electrons are negatively charged and are bound to the nucleus by the attraction, but never get too close, always staying outside and moving around it.
