Hey mate here is your answer::

The nucleus is the positively charged core of an atom, which is surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons.

Nucleons are particles that the core of an atom consists of, namely positively charged protons and neutral neutrons. That is, the nucleus is made up of nucleons.

hey mate here is your ans:-

The difference between a nuclide and a nucleon is that nucleons determine which nuclide we're considering. Let's look.. Nucleons are the particles that make up an atomic nucleus. That means either a proton or neutron in an atomic nucleus could be fairly referred to as a nucleon. The term nuclide is one that is applied to say something like "the atom that has a nuclear configuration of _____."
In the nuclide helium-4, the helium atom has 4 nucleons. There are the 2 protons, naturally, and a pair (2) neutrons. The 4 nucleons give it that isotopic number 4. In hydrogen-2, this nuclide has 2 nucleons, a proton and a neutron, in its nucleus.

hope this helps you.
