What amount of electrons does it take to carry light?

Electrons do not carry light. Light is an electromagnetic wave or a photon.


How are electrons involved in light?

None, light is composed of photons. Light may be emitted or absorbed when electrons undergo transitions between atomic or molecular orbitals, but the light itself does not contain electrons.


What occurs when light strikes a metal and electrons are released?

The electrons in the electron sea absorb and re-emit the light.


What occurs when light causes electrons to move when it hits some substances?

The electrons absorb the light energy, which excites them.


Are electrons moving through space called light?

Electrons are very small, and have very small mass, but they are not visible light (photons).


When the electrons release energy as visible light where do the electrons go?

Yes. When electrons go from a higher energy orbital to a lower one, they release photons (ie: light).


What does light do to Chlorophyll?

The light is absorbed by the chlorophyll. The light is then used to excite electrons.


Are electrons moving through space light?

No; light is photons.


How many electrons are there in the common monatomic calcium cation?

18 electrons.


What does the light do to the electrons found in chloroplasts?

the electrons found in the chloroplast becomes excited.


Are the electrons of an atom affected by temperature?

Temperature definitely affects the electrons of an atom, if the temperature is high enough. That is why fires produce light; the light you see from a fire is emitted by excited electrons.
