What part of the atom is able to be lost or gained?
the energy is require to remove an electron from an atom (ionization energy) but when electron is absorbed in an atom energy is released (electron affinity) however 2nd electron affinity is endothermic ,energy is require.
How do the energy and the most probable location of an electron in the third shell of an atom compare to the energy and the most probable location of an electron in the first shell of the same atom?
in the third shell, an electron has more energy and is further from the nucleus
What is an electron in an atoms outer most energy level?
The electrons on the outtermost energy level of an atom is called a valence electron.
What is energy released on adding an electron to an isolated gas phase atom?
All electron shells represent an energy level - it doesn't matter if its the outermost shell or not. In order for there to be a release of energy the electron has to be coming from a higher energy state. The only energy state higher than the outer-most electron shell would be a free electron. The only way an electron becomes a free electron is that sufficient was provided to lift it from what-ever electron shell (energy level) it was previously in to escape velocity. The energy that it then releases in returning is then this exact same amount of energy.
If electrons have the most energy in an atom electrons in an electron cloud electrons in the outermost electron shell electrons in the innermost electron shell electrons in the nucleus?
Electrons in the outermost energy shell (valence shell) have the most energy.
What is a ground state?
the lowest energy level occupied by an electron when an atom is in its most stable energy state
What is first ionization enegy?
Ionization energy is more commonly used to remove the topmost electron in the atom very important information if you are getting ready for a test.
What is 1st ionisation enthalpy?
it is the energy required for a mole of atom to loose a mole of electron.
The color of light emitted by an atom is most closely related to?
energy released by the electron
When will an atom give up an electron?
When less than half of the outer energy level is filled!
Model with dark bands representing energy levels shows where an atom's electrons are most likely to be?
The answer to that would be: An Electron Cloud Model
What is ionising energy?
When an element is in the gaseous state, it is the energy absorbed by that element to make one(the first) outer most electron leave the atom .
