In an atom, why are electrons in different places and not together?

Because the charge of electrons is opposite in sign than protons, the two types of particles attract each other, and this force, known as the Coulomb force, holds the atom together. Electrons travel around the nucleus in orbitals, but it is impossible to know both the speed and location of an electron at the same time.:) let me know if this helped

Gay-lussac's law i think.
