quantum mechanics
One can think of the kinetic energy of a particular electron of an atom as an inverse function of its confinement. In other words, it is a lower energy state for an electron to be de-localized over a larger area. By forming a bond, an electron essentially occupies twice as much space as it did previously. This is lower energy.
Energy is never "used" it is always converted to another form of energy.Therefore, there must be different forms of energy which are:1. Chemical2. Electrical3. Elastic4. Nuclear5. Thermal6. Gravitational7. Kinetic8. Light(9. Sound)When a candle burns the chemical energy is converted into thermal or "heat" energy.
The process of cellular respiration is what makes energy. ATP is made during this process, ATP is the main source of energy in the body. Energy isn't really stored in the body, it is just made when needed.
Photosynthesis is the act of trapping the light energy from the sun and turning it into chemical energy in the molecule starch. The energy it traps comes from high energy photons.
Latent heat is the measurement of energy needed to change the state of a substance at its melting point or boiling point. The latent heat of fusion of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a solid to liquid at 0 degrees C. this works out to be more than 800KJ of heat energy. The latent heat of vaporization of water is the amount of energy needed to change a fixed amount of water from a liquid to a gas at 100 degrees C. this is more than 1200KJ of heat needed to be absorbed.
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.
The energy needed to remove an electron from a negative ion to form a neutral atom or molecule is called the electron affinity. It represents the energy change when an electron is added to a neutral atom or molecule to form a negative ion. The higher the electron affinity, the greater the energy needed to remove an electron.
The energy needed to remove an electron from an atom (in the gaseous state) is called the IONIZATION ENERGY.
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.
The energy needed for ionization is called ionization energy. It is the minimum amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom or molecule in its gaseous state.
Light or photons are little packets of energy. When this energy is absorbed by an electron it boots the electrons energy and the electron jumps to a higher orbital shell position (which must be vacant of its electron). The electron can only do this when the energy needed for the jump and the energy in the incoming photon match. Thus specific colours of light are absorbed depending on the element present.
This is the energy needed to extract an electron from an atom in gaseous phase, to form a cation.
The amount of energy needed to remove the most loosely held electron is referred to as the ionization energy. It is the energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion.
The energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom is called the ionization energy. This energy depends on factors such as the atomic structure and the strength of the attraction between the nucleus and the electron. The higher the attraction, the higher the ionization energy needed to remove the electron.
For example when the electron absorb energy.
The work function is the minimum energy needed to remove an electron from a material, while the ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom. The work function is typically equal to or greater than the ionization energy, as it accounts for the additional energy needed to overcome the attractive forces within the material.
Electron removal energy (also called ionization energy) is the amount of energy needed to remove an electron from an atom or molecule. It is typically measured in electronvolts (eV) or kilojoules per mole (kJ/mol) and represents the strength of the attraction between the electron and the nucleus of the atom.
