When sunlight excites electrons in chlorophyll how do the electrons change?
When a chlorophyll molecule absorbs light, the process of photosynthesis, or the transfer of light into sugar, begins. Chlorophyll is a green liquid inside one part of a plant cell: the chloroplast. When light hits the chlorophyll molecule, it becomes excited. This energy passes through other chlorophyll molecules, and into the reaction center of Photosystem II: this is the location of the first stage of photosynthesis, and the electron transport chain. For each photon of light that enters and excites a chlorophyll molecule, one electron is released from the reaction center of Photosystem II. When two electrons are released, they are transferred to Plastoquinone Qb, a mobile carrier, which picks up two protons and starts moving towards the Cytochrome b6f complex. Cytochrome b6f, like Photosystem II, is a complex where photosynthesis processes occur.
What happens to the movement of molecule when their temperature is raised?
They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.
What is the atomic particle whose energy level is raised in photosynthesis?
electron
How do you calculate number of atoms from moles?
No of moles of atoms={total mass of substance(or)total mass of molecules }x# gram molecular weight of one molecule Where # =atomicity of molecule i.e no.of atoms in a molecule ex: atomicity of co2=3 since there are three atoms in a co2 (c,o,o) molecule.
How many molecules are required for a baby?
On average, there are 6 billion molecules in a newly born baby. The chance takes to form only 1 molecule at random is 1 in 10 raised to 160, which is 1 out of 1000000 etc (160 zeros).
What happens chemically when chlorophyll absorbs light energy?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work

The line emission spectrum of an atom is caused by the energies released when electrons?
The line emission spectrum of an atom is caused by the energies released when electrons fall from high energy level. It goes down to a low energy level and the extra energy it had from higher level is released as light.
What is a tevatron?
When an accelerator in which protons are raised to electron-volts.
What happens to the movement of molecule when their temperature is raised?
They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.
What is the atomic particle whose energy level is raised in photosynthesis?
electron
Why electron leave conduction band?
When an electric field is applied to accelerate them or when the temperature of the crystal is raised.
How does the speed of a photon compare to the speed of an EM wave?
Wave length of gamma rays is 10 raised to the power of minus 12. It means that you have 10 raised to 12 waves in case of gamma rays/ meter. Wave length of radio wave is 10 raised to 3. So there is difference of '12' zeros between both of them. But the speed of electromagnetic wave is about 300,000,000 meters/ second. It means that photon travels about 300,000,000 meters/second. So the actual distance traveled by photon in case of radio wave is little more than 300,000,000 meters. So in case of gamma rays the distance traveled by photon is 1,000,000,000,000 *1000 = 1000,000,000,000,000 times that of radio wave per second.
What happens to the movement molecules when their temperature is raised?
They begin to move faster. The increased temperature increases the energy of the molecule.
What is the valence electron from hydrogen?
Hydrogen is usually 1 valance in a resting state but can be raised in number of valances with loading as in heavy water or tritium, helium are higher valances.
What is 6 x pi to the power 5?
mass of proton is 6 x pi raised to power 5 times mass of electron
Explain what happens when sunlight hits a chlorophyll molecule?
As the sunlight hits the chlorophyll molecules sunlight is absorbed by a molecule of chlorophyll electrons in the molecule interact with photons of light and are raised to a higher energy level. The electrons are passed from one molecule to another in an electron transport chain producing ATP and NADPH. In case you don't know ATP is what cells mainly use for energy and NADPH is use as an electron carrier.Light energy is transferred to the electrons inthe chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy of theseelectrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesiswork.100% correct answer. Got it from answer book :D. You might want to change some words though since I got it straight from answer book...Its 9th grade biology btw
