No, as energy is absorbed. When the reverse happens, the higher state to lower state, the electron is returning to its lower energy level ground state and energy is released in the form of a photon.
Every element has a specific energy describing each of the energy levels that any given electron is able to occupy. In order to occupy a higher energy level the electron must gain some energy, and this energy is derived from a particle of light known as a photon. Since the electron can only exist in specific energy levels it must absorb a photon with the exact amount of energy required. A photon with too much or too little energy will have no effect. The amount of energy in a photon is proportional to the frequency of the light that it came from, so only certain frequencies of light can be used to move electrons from one energy level to another.
Similarly, an electron would have to lose energy to drop to a lower energy level, and this energy is released in the form of a photon. If you know the difference in the energy levels, you can actually calculate the energy of such a photon and predict what frequency of light it will produce.
yes but its hard for the normal eyes to see it and even if you could it would take years for you to be able too
Basically, energy is emitted when an electron falls from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. Such energy is emitted as electromagnetic waves, which in certain cases can be visible light.
The energy difference, between two energy levels, is emitted as a photon, when the electron "falls down" to a lower energy level.
A photon is emitted when an electron falls from a higher to lower orbital. A photon is an elementary particles, the quantum of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation.
Transition metals vary in the number of electrons in the highest level. Alkaline earth metals have two electrons in the highest energy level.
The difference in energy between the energy levels determines color of light emitted when an electron moves from one energy level to another.
The energy is released as electromagetic energy and each transition in each atom has its own wavelength for the light emitted.

Transition means switching from one energy level to another; the lost energy turns into photons.

transition of an electron from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
Light is generated when photons are emitted from an atom. This occurs when an electron on one energy level of an atom falls to a lower energy level.
All transitions in which electrons move from a lower to a higher level require a gain of energy. example: 2nd to 3rd shell
