Which energy position do electrons generally want to be in?
Their lowest possible energy state, called the "ground state".
What is the lowest first ionization energy?
It is the energy required to remove the 1st electron from the atom
Which principal energy level will contain electrons with the lowest energy is what?
First energy level bc as the electron falls from high to low it emitts energy
What is the lowest energy excited state electron configuration of O2?
The electron configuration for an O2- ion is 1s22s22p6 just like the noble gas neon.
Which group or famil has the lowest ionization energy?
Group 1 because across group 1 to 8 nuclear force of attraction increases to a significant extent and as a result greater amount of energy is needed to remove an electron. More specifically Fr has the lowest IE and He has the highest
The lowest possible energy position for an electron is known as the ground state?
yes
Does an electron in the first energy shell have greater potential energy than an electron in the third energy shell?
electrons in the first electron shell have the lowest possible potential energy because YOUR MOM DROPPED U ON YOUR HEAD WHEN U WERE A BABY
Who stated an Electron Must Occupy The Lowest Available Energy Orbital?
While I am not sure who stated it, that's a general tendency in nature, and not just for electrons - i.e., for systems to go to the lowest possible energy level.
Which energy position do electrons generally want to be in?
Their lowest possible energy state, called the "ground state".
Principal energy level 1 of an atom contains an electron with the lowest energy why?
level one electron contain more energy
If electron in an atom have the lowest possible energies the atom is in the?
Ground state
What is the area surrounding the atom where electrons are located?
Its called the electron shell. Electrons will always fill up low orbitals first in the shell, an then as more energy is added to the atom, the electrons move up an orbit, then release the energy in some form, and they move back down to the lowest energy orbit.
What is the lowest first ionization energy?
It is the energy required to remove the 1st electron from the atom
Where is the shell that has the lowest energy level?
This electron shell is near the atomic nucleus.
In an atom an electron that is close to the nucleus is on the highest enegry level?
No. The greater distance from the nucleus the more energy an electron has.
What is the lowest energy level?
1. Atoms do not have energy levels unlike particles like electrons etc.2. The lowest energy for atoms will be 0 at absolute zero temp of 0 deg Kelvin.3. For electrons in all atoms lowest energy is that of 2 electrons nearest to the nucleus.
What is a ground state?
the lowest energy level occupied by an electron when an atom is in its most stable energy state
