What else can I help you with?
Electrons that are not in the highest occupied energy level are called?
inner-shell electrons
An atom is in an excited state when it has its lowest energy?
No, when an atom is in an excited state, its electrons have gained energy, and they proceed to lose it when they fall back into their normal energy levels
Electrons that have been excited by light energy absorbed by a chlorophyll molecule?
Excited electrons in a chlorophyll molecule are transferred through a series of proteins in the thylakoid membrane, known as the electron transport chain, generating ATP and NADPH through the process of photosynthesis. These high-energy molecules will then be used in the Calvin cycle to produce glucose from carbon dioxide.
Are excited electrons from the acceptor molecule sent to the electron transport chain?
Yes, excited electrons from the acceptor molecule are sent to the electron transport chain. This process allows the electrons to move through a series of protein complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane, ultimately leading to the generation of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
When excited electrons radiate energy the amount of energy given off is equal to?
The amount of energy given off by excited electrons when they radiate energy is equal to the difference in energy level between the initial and final states. This emitted energy is typically in the form of photons.
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".
How does the electrons become excited?
Electrons become excited when they absorb energy, such as from heat, light, or electricity. This extra energy causes the electrons to move to a higher energy level away from the nucleus of an atom, creating an excited state.
The state of matter in which electrons have absorbed energy is called?
Excited Electrons
When sunlight excited electrons in chlorophyll how do the electrons change?
the electrons gain a huge amount of energy
What does the light do to the electrons found in chloroplasts?
the electrons found in the chloroplast becomes excited.
What is meant by excited state of an electron?
When the electrons are at higher energy level,they are said to be excited state.
Electrons that are not in the highest occupied energy level are called?
inner-shell electrons
Do atoms in the excited state have more electrons than in the ground state?
Yes, because an atom in an excited state will normally give off energy and go to a less-excited state or to its ground state. Some atoms have long-lived excited states and are called "metastable".
State in which electrons have jumped to a higher energy level?
state in which electrons have absorbed energy and "jumped" to a higher energy level
What causes the electrons to become excited and move into the electron transport chain?
Electrons become excited in the electron transport chain due to the energy input from electron carrier molecules like NADH and FADH2. These electron carriers donate the electrons to the proteins in the chain, creating a flow of electrons that drives the production of ATP.
How are electrons become excited?
Electrons become excited when they absorb energy, such as through exposure to light or heat. This additional energy causes the electrons to move to a higher energy level, creating an excited state. The electrons will eventually release this energy by returning to their original, lower energy state, emitting light or heat in the process.
What gets excited when chlorophyll absorbs a photon?
electrons
