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".
What event accompanies energy absorption by chlorophyll or other pigment molecules of the antenna complex?
The event that accompanies energy absorption by chlorophyll or other pigment molecules of the antenna complex is the excitation of electrons. When light energy is absorbed by the pigment molecules, their electrons get excited to a higher energy state. This excited state is essential for the subsequent transfer of energy to the reaction center of the photosystem for further processing.
Why are carotenoids coloured?
Carotenoids have conjugated bonds. Wavelengths of visible light are absorbed when electrons are excited to higher energy levels. The complementary colour is to that absorbed is observed.
What is meant by excited state of an electron?
When the electrons are at higher energy level,they are said to be excited state.
When an electron falls back to its ground state how much energy is released?
It releases the same amount of energy that it absorbed when it was excited to a higher energy state.
The state of matter in which electrons have absorbed energy is called?
Excited Electrons
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
When electrons of an excited atom falls back to lower levels there is an emission of energy that produces what?
The electrons emit photons of light equal in energy to the energy that was absorbed.
When the electrons of an excited atom fall back to lower levels there is an emission of energy that produces what?
The electrons emit photons of light equal in energy to the energy that was absorbed.
When one electron moves from the 4th shell to the 2nd shell in hydrogen is energy absorbed or emitted by the atom?
The energy is absorbed by the electrons because work needs to be done on the electrons to raise them to an excited state. Energy is stored in the electrons while they are in their excited state and would emit energy if they returned to their ground state.
Electrons that have been excited by light energy absorbed by a chlorophyll molecule?
Some of the electrons become excited. means that they have comparatively more energy. the flow of energy takes place through these excited electrons. these are transferred form the reaction center chlorophyll to the primary electron acceptors.
When sunlight excites electrons in the chlorophyll how do the electrons changes?
As red and blue light energy is absorbed by Chlorophyll electrons in outer shell are excited & raised to a higher energy level.
When sunlight excites electrons in chlorophyll how do electrons change?
As red and blue light energy is absorbed by Chlorophyll electrons in outer shell are excited & raised to a higher energy level.
When an electron gets excited is energy released or absorbed?
To get excited, it must absorb energy. To get back to its ground state, it releases energy.
An electron that has absorbed energy?
excited state
