What else can I help you with?
What light is visible that is emitted by a phosphor particle when it absorbs energy?
This phenomenon is called phosphorescence.
What causes photons to be emitted from excited atoms?
The energy difference, between two energy levels, is emitted as a photon, when the electron "falls down" to a lower energy level.
What does the electron produce when they change energy levels?
When electrons change energy levels, they emit light or energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. This emitted light can have specific frequencies or colors, depending on the difference in energy levels that the electron undergoes.
When an electron drops from a higher energy state to a lower energy state?
When an electron drops from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, it emits electromagnetic radiation in the form of a photon. This process is known as atomic emission, and the energy of the emitted photon corresponds to the energy difference between the two electron states.
What is the process in which an electron returns to a lower energy level and emits a photon?
This process is called "emission." When an electron transitions from a higher to a lower energy level within an atom, it releases a photon of light corresponding to the energy difference between the two levels. This emitted photon carries away the energy that the electron lost during the transition.
Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light called a?
Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light called an emission. Light/energy emissions are released in a characteristic manner (wavelength) that corresponds to the amount of energy lost.
Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light called?
proton
Energy lost by an electron during its transition from an outer to an inner orbit is emitted as a flash of light is called what?
Electromagnetic radiation

What causes photons to be emitted from excited atoms?
The energy difference, between two energy levels, is emitted as a photon, when the electron "falls down" to a lower energy level.
Why is a shorter wavelength of light emitted when an electron falls from n4 to n1 than when an electron falls from n2 to n1?
When an electron falls from n4 to n1, it releases more energy because it is transitioning between high energy states. This higher energy transition corresponds to a shorter wavelength of light being emitted, according to the energy of the photon being inversely proportional to its wavelength. In contrast, when an electron falls from n2 to n1, the energy released is less, resulting in a longer wavelength of light emitted.
What does the electron produce when they change energy levels?
When electrons change energy levels, they emit light or energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. This emitted light can have specific frequencies or colors, depending on the difference in energy levels that the electron undergoes.
Is energy emitted or absorbed when an electron moves from an excited state to a ground state?
Emitted, and the precise amount of energy that is emitted will depend on what kind of atom, and moving from which excited state. That's how spectrographs can determine what element is present.
When an electron drops from a higher energy state to a lower energy state?
When an electron drops from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, it emits electromagnetic radiation in the form of a photon. This process is known as atomic emission, and the energy of the emitted photon corresponds to the energy difference between the two electron states.
If an electron is in an excited state it must lose energy when it falls to a lower state. What happens to the energy that is lost?
The energy that is lost when an electron falls to a lower state is emitted as a photon of light. This process is known as photon emission, and the energy of the emitted photon corresponds to the energy difference between the initial and final states of the electron.
What is the energy in cm-1 of the photon emitted during the transition of an electron in a hydrogen atom from the n3 to n2 energy level?
The energy of the photon emitted during the transition of an electron in a hydrogen atom from the n3 to n2 energy level is approximately 364.5 cm-1.
Which term refers to the energy emitted when an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower one?
neutron
