When an electron drops from a higher energy level to a lower energy level is it taken from the environment?

No, the energy released by electron might be taken by enviornment. Electron remains in the infuence of corresponding nuclei, in another energy level.

Emission of light from an atom occurs when the electron?
Lots of wrong answers out there, tested this on school, the answer is: Drops from a higher to a lower energy level
What electron transition represents a gain of energy?
All transitions in which electrons move from a lower to a higher level require a gain of energy. example: 2nd to 3rd shell
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 change occurs with the atom when it is emitting light?
An electron has dropped from a higher energy state to a lower one. The photon emitted has precisely the same energy as was lost by the electron.
Quanta of light emitted from 1 electron drops from the 7th to 2nd energy level?
What atom? Need Z (atomic ) number.
When an electron drops from a higher energy state to a lower energy state?
A photon is emitted when an electron falls from a higher to lower orbital. A photon is an elementary particles, the quantum of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation.

According to Bohr's model of the hydrogen atom how is hydrogen's emission spectrum produced?
it is produced when an electron from a higher energy orbit drops down to a lower level of energy orbit.
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.

It's produced when an electron from a higher energy orbit drops down to a lower level energy orbit

What can you assume if an electron moves to a higher energy level?
When an electron is moved to a higher energy level,after absorption, the quantum no longer exists as a separate entity -- its energy has been seamlessly integrated ...into the orbital energy of the electron. If the electon absorbs another quantum, that is likewise integrated seamlessly. if the electron drops down a level toward the nucleus, it emits some of its energy as a quantum, outside the electron, that quantum exists as a photon (electromagnetic radiation). inside an electron, there are no separate or independent quanta. in case of an annihilation, ALL the energy of the electron turns into one quantum (and all the energy of the positron into another quantum).If i didn't do a good job of explaining this, please post in the DiscBrd AND send me a private message, and i will try to clarify.
What happens to an electron during an electron transition?
Drops to a lower energy level and emits one photon of light.
