it falls in 89
The electron gains energy.
It falls back to its ground state, emitting light of a particular wavelength and color.
The electron gains energy.
It gains energy in a quantity amount or whatever it says
It immediately falls back to the ground state and emits a photon of light.
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 moves up an energy level, it absorbs energy in the form of a photon. This causes the electron to jump to a higher energy level and become excited. The electron will eventually return to a lower energy level by emitting a photon of light.
Lots of wrong answers out there, tested this on school, the answer is: Drops from a higher to a lower energy level
if an electron gains enough energy it jumps to a higher energy level. when this happens the atom is in an "excited" state.
During emission, an electron in an atom transitions from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, releasing a photon in the process. In absorption, an electron absorbs a photon and transitions from a lower energy level to a higher energy level within the atom.
When electrons transfer within an electron cloud, energy can be released or absorbed depending on the nature of the transition. If an electron moves to a higher energy level, energy is absorbed, often in the form of light or heat. Conversely, when an electron falls to a lower energy level, energy is released, typically as electromagnetic radiation (such as photons). This process is fundamental to phenomena like chemical bonding and the emission of light in various materials.
When you move an electron in an atom from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, it is called an electron excitation. This process requires the electron to absorb energy to move to a higher energy state.
