When an atom absorbs enough energy electrons move to an orbital?
The electrons become excited and move to higher energy orbitals.
Do metals donate or accept electrons and what do they become?
Metals donate electrons by losing electrons and forming positive ions.
What allows photosynthetic organisms to capture solar energy?
Plants algae and bacteria capture sunlight after capturing they use metabolism to convert them in to energy. They do this when electrons get excited and jump off chloroplast into thylakoid membrane, the electrons have to be replaced so they steal them from CO2 and all that is left is oxygen and they release it.
What is the term for an atom whose electrons have the lowest possible energies?
The term for an atom whose electrons have the lowest possible energies is "ground state." In this state, electrons are in their lowest energy levels or orbitals, closest to the nucleus. Excited states refer to when electrons are in higher energy levels, further away from the nucleus.
When electrons move from one object another they become what with static electricity?
They become charges
What causes the electrons to become excited and move into the electron transport chain?
In photosynthesis, the electrons from the chlorophyll are excited by the sunlight
What heppens when light strikes green plant pigments?
electrons become excited
Electrons in pigment molecules become excited when exposed to?
Ultraviolet Light
Electrons that have been excited by light energy absorbed by a chlorophyll molecule?
Some of the electrons become excited. means that they have comparatively more energy. the flow of energy takes place through these excited electrons. these are transferred form the reaction center chlorophyll to the primary electron acceptors.
What did Planck say about energy and electron?
He said that electrons can become excited and begin to hop energy levels; when this happens an electron is in the excited state.
Why selenium is photo conductor?
when light falls on the it its electrons become excited and become free for conductivity that's why selenium is a photo conductor
When an atom absorbs enough energy electrons move to an orbital?
The electrons become excited and move to higher energy orbitals.
Why do Electrons in pigment molecules become excited?
According to Bohr's theories the electrons in the metal ions are "excited" due to the absorption of a quantum or multiple quanta of light
What effect do electrons from the magnetosphere have on atoms?
They cause the atoms to become "excited."
What makes an elements electrons in an excited state?
Electrons can be excited in an element by supplying energy to the molecule of the elements. Further eletrons get excited in chemical reactions
When electrons absorbs energy they exist for a short time higher energy level. These electrons are said to be?
"Excited", or in an "excited state".
What happens to lead if hit by gamma rays?
The electrons in the lead become excited and emit light of particular frequencies unique to lead.
