The question is too vague to answer in general, but reading between the lines a little, I assume you're talking about the photovoltaic effect, in which each photon dislodges one electron.

Does a photon have electrons?

No. A photon is a particle of light. It is massless.


When 10 electrons drop from fifth to second energy level?

When 10 electrons drop from the fifth to the second energy level, energy in the form of photons is emitted. The energy of the emitted photon is equal to the difference in energy levels between the initial and final states of the electrons. This process is known as photon emission or de-excitation.

What gets excited when chlorophyll absorbs a photon?

electrons


What happens to electrons if photon frequency is below threshold?

If the photon frequency is below the threshold frequency, the electrons do not have enough energy to be emitted from the material's surface, and no photoelectric effect occurs. The electrons will not be ejected and will remain bound to the material.


Why is glass transparent?

When the electrons in molecules are unable to absorb the energy of incident photon, the photon continues along its path. This happens in the case of glass, even though glass is not 100 percent transparent, as some of the photon energy is absorbed by the glass electrons.


After the first photon of lights are produced which process is responsible for amplification of light?

The process responsible for amplification of light after the first photon is produced is called stimulated emission. This process involves the emission of a second photon that has the same wavelength, phase, and direction as the original photon. This leads to a cascade effect where more photons are produced, resulting in amplification of light.


What amount of electrons does it take to carry light?

Electrons do not carry light. Light is an electromagnetic wave or a photon.


What is the name for each atom of an element with a certain number of electrons?

What is the amount of energy for each photon called?

It depends on the wavelength of the photon. Energy of each photon is hc/λ, where h = Planck's constant = 6.626x1034 Js, c = speed of light = 3x108 m/s, and λ = wavelength of the photon


Do photon have a greater energy than electron?

No. A photon has no rest mass an electron has mass.


What is a bundle of light energy produced by electron movements called?
