An electron has no specific amount of energy.
According to Bohr's Model of hydrogen atom, the energy of an electron in a shell is given by:
E=-13.6x Z2/n2 E.V.
Where Z is the atomic number of the atom, n is the shell number and E.V. is electron volt, the unit for energy
1E.V. = 1.6 x 10-19 J.
But the Bohr's model was rejected and quantum mechanical model of an atom came into force where
n=principal quantum number and
l=Azimuthal quantum number
are used to determine the energy of an atom.
'n' determines the energy to a larger extent and 'l' to a little extent.

What causes an electron to change energy levels within an atom?
An electron changes energy levels within an atom when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy, typically in the form of light or heat. This process is known as electron excitation or de-excitation.
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is an?
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is known as the energy difference between the two levels. This energy difference is typically quantified in electron volts (eV) or joules.
What is the amount of energy released by an electron as it returned to ground state?
The energy released by an electron as it returns to the ground state is equal to the difference in energy between its initial excited state and the ground state. This energy is typically released in the form of a photon with a specific wavelength determined by the energy difference.
When an electron drops to a lower energy level what is the energy of the photon released?
The energy of the photon is the same as the energy lost by the electron
The energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom is the atom's?
The energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom is the atom's ionization energy. It represents the amount of energy needed to remove the most loosely bound electron from an atom in its gaseous state.
Why must an electron absorb a fixed amount of energy to jump from its ground state to an excited state?
An electron must absorb a fixed amount of energy to jump from its ground state to an excited state because energy levels in an atom are quantized. This means that electrons can only occupy specific energy levels, and the energy difference between these levels corresponds to a precise amount of energy that must be absorbed for the transition to occur. If the energy absorbed is not equal to this specific amount, the electron cannot transition to a higher energy state, resulting in no excitation.
How many energy levels does an electron go up if it is excited?
It depends on the amount of energy it absorbs. There isn't a single specific number.
What can be said of the amount of energy that an electron absorbs when it is excited compared to the amount of energy that it releases when it returns to ground state?
When an electron is excited, it absorbs a specific amount of energy to move to a higher energy state. When it returns to its ground state, it releases this absorbed energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The energy released is equal to the energy absorbed during excitation, following the principle of conservation of energy.
What causes an electron to change energy levels within an atom?
An electron changes energy levels within an atom when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy, typically in the form of light or heat. This process is known as electron excitation or de-excitation.
Why the positions of the dark bands on the absorption spectrum for an element correspond to the bright bands on the emission spectrum of the same element?
It requires a certain amount of energy to raise an electron from a specific level to another specific level; the same amount of energy is released again if it falls back down. One - the electron moving up an energy level - corresponds to the absorption of energy; the other - the electron falling down - corresponds to the emission of energy.
An electron jumps to a new energy level when?
An electron jumps to a new energy level when it absorbs or emits a specific amount of energy in the form of a photon. This energy change causes the electron to move to a higher or lower energy level based on the difference between the initial and final energy states.
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is an?
The amount of energy needed to move an electron from one energy level to another is known as the energy difference between the two levels. This energy difference is typically quantified in electron volts (eV) or joules.
What is the amount of energy released by an electron as it returned to ground state?
The energy released by an electron as it returns to the ground state is equal to the difference in energy between its initial excited state and the ground state. This energy is typically released in the form of a photon with a specific wavelength determined by the energy difference.
