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.

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 called a quantum.
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
What is the amount of energy released by an electron as it returned to ground state?
An excited electron releases a photon as it returns to ground state.
When an electron moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level the atom commonly?
The electron moving from a lower to a higher energy level equates to moving from a specific orbit 'r' to a specific orbit 'rr' that is farther from the nucleus.
What term is use to describe the amount of energy it takes for a certain amount of substances to be raised one degree in temperature is it specific heat specific gravity specific energy specific mass?
It is the Specific Heat Capacity.
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.
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.
Why do electrons jump when heated?
electrons jump energy levels becouse each level has a specific amount of energy needed inorder to be in that level. when an electron gets enough energy it jumps to the next level it can possible be in with that amount of energy.
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 called a quantum.
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.
Why it is considered as the energy of an electron is quantised?
Electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom in specific orbitals, a specific distance from the nucleus of the atom. A specific quanta of energy will knock the electron into a higher orbital. When the electron falls back into the lower orbital, it will give off that same specific quanta of energy. That is why lasers work.
What is an electron feature characterized by specific energy?
Orbital
When electron drops to a lower energy level what is the energy of the proton released?
You may be confusing "proton" with "photon". A proton is a positively-charged particle contained within the nucleus of an atom. A photon is a discrete unit of energy normally expressed as light. Around the nucleus of the atom, there are some electrons in energy levels. When an atom absorbs energy, it absorbs a specific amount, or "quantum" of energy and the electron boosted to a higher energy level. When the electron drops to a lower energy level, it emits a photon in the form of light at a specific energy and frequency.
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?
The amount of energy that is absorbed is the same as the amount of energy that is released.
