The electrons become excited and move to higher energy orbitals.
Matter absorbs photons. Electrons in quantized harmonized orbits of the same energy level as the photon absorp it.
Black
Chlorophyll a absorbs the most light (energy) in the blue- violet spectrum
Most of the light's energy gets converted into heat.
When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work
These electrons are called "excited".
"Excited", or in an "excited state".
The electrons become excited and move to higher energy orbitals.
It becomes excited.
Matter absorbs photons. Electrons in quantized harmonized orbits of the same energy level as the photon absorp it.
Excited state
The valence electrons
The electrons move up to a higher energy level.
When an atom absorbs a photon its energy is transferred to outer shell electrons. The result will be the transition of an electron to a higher energy state.
Black
Electrons in the outermost energy shell (valence shell) have the most energy.
