The electron-cloud effect is a concept in quantum mechanics that describes the behavior of electrons in atoms and molecules. It refers to the idea that electrons do not occupy fixed orbits around the nucleus, as once thought (in the Bohr model of the atom), but instead exist in a "cloud" of probability. This cloud represents areas where the electrons are likely to be found at any given time.
