What don't atoms radiate?
They do, if excited.
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".
What is an exited atoms?
An excited atom is one in which the outer electrons are not in their lowest level.
Do atoms in excited states emit radiation randomly at any wavelength?
yes
Do all atoms give out radiation?
Any excited atomic nucleus can radiate energy, but we generally only see radioactive atoms emitting radiation.
What are atoms that have gained energy called?
excited state atoms
What don't atoms radiate?
They do, if excited.
What happeneds to atoms when they combine to form a new substances?
They form new chemical bondings, loss or gain electrons.
One indicator that electrons in atoms are limited to specific energy levels is that?
light emitted from excited atoms occurs only at specific wavelengths

What effect do electrons from the magnetosphere have on atoms?
They cause the atoms to become "excited."
What is an exited atoms?
An excited atom is one in which the outer electrons are not in their lowest level.
Do atoms in excited states emit radiation randomly at any wavelength?
yes
What is heat energey?
The heat energy of a substance is determined by how active its atoms and molecules are. A hot object is one whose atoms and molecules are excited and show rapid movement. A cooler object's molecules and atoms will be less excited and show less movement. When these guys are in the excited state, they take up a lot of space because they're moving around so fast. When the atoms and molecules settle down, or cool down, they take up less space...

'Spectrum'.
