What are the electrons that are in the highest energy level of an atom and that are involved in chemical reactions?
Valence electrons
The electrons that are in the highest energy level of an atom and that are involved in chemical reactions?
valence electrons
What electromagnetic wave has its origin in the nucleus of an atom?
In nuclear reactions, energy is usually released. This energy is released as an electromagnetic wave. Because of the large amount of energy involved, this wave has a high frequency/energy - a gamma ray.
Where are the valance atoms in an atom?
Valence electrons are the outermost electrons in an atom. They are located in the outer energy levels or orbitals, specifically in the highest principal energy level. These valence electrons are involved in chemical bonding and determining the atom's reactivity.
How does the sodium atom becomes a positively charged ion?
It forms an ion by giving away its only electron in the valence shell (3rd energy level).
What part of an atom is involved in chemical bond?
the outer energy level electrons.

valence electrons
When an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level to the atom?
The atom will emit some sort of electromagnetic radiation. It can range from x-rays to visible light depending on which energy levels are involved
What do you call the energy involved when an atom loses an electron?
The amount of energy required to remove an electron form an at is the ionization energy.
The energy carrier NAD is reduced to what substance?
NAD is an energy carrier which is involved in the process of glycolysis. It is reduced to NADH when a hydrogen atom is added.
How is thermal energy transferred among particles?
Thermal energy is temperature. Temperature is measured as the average kinetic energy of each particle, as a atom is always moving. The faster the atom's movement, the more energy, the higher the temperature. Thus, thermal energy is transferred when a fast moving atom comes into contact with a slower moving one, thus giving it some of its energy, making it move faster, making it hotter.
What is the energy state of an atom?
The energy state of an atom is an energy level.
What happens when electrons absorbs energy?
When an electron in an atom absorbs a specific "Quantum" of energy, it will jump to the next specific energy level in the atom. It'll then jump back down, and in so doing releasing light and giving off a signature light spectrum for an element.
What is the easiest way to add energy to matter?
heating it
What electromagnetic wave has its origin in the nucleus of an atom?
In nuclear reactions, energy is usually released. This energy is released as an electromagnetic wave. Because of the large amount of energy involved, this wave has a high frequency/energy - a gamma ray.
Do atom get rid of their excess energy by giving off radioactive decay?
Yes, that's more or less what happens in the case of radioactive decay.
