Atoms are made of a nucleus and orbitals.

The nucleus is made of protons (particles with positive charge) and neutrons (neutral particles).

In the atomic orbitals (around the nucleus) are the electrons (particles with negative charge).

For example: Oxygen atom

The oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 neutrons in the nucleus, and 8 electrons in the orbitals.
