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 else can I help you with?
What do you call an atom if you move an electron in an atom from a low energy level to a higher energy level within the atom?
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.
If an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level electromagnetic radiation is what?
If an electron moves from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, it absorbs energy. This energy is typically in the form of electromagnetic radiation or photons.
What does the atom do when the electron moves from lower to higher energy level?
When an electron moves from a lower to a higher energy level, it absorbs energy and jumps to a higher orbit. This process is known as excitation. The electron can then release this absorbed energy as light when it moves back down to a lower energy level.
When the electron emits lights does the electron move up to a higher energy level or down to a lower energy level?
In the Bohr model of the atom, an electron emits a photon when it moves from a higher energy level to a lower energy level.
When going up an energy level what happens?
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.

What happens when a electron moves to higher energy level?
The electron gains energy.
What can happenn if an electron moves to a higher energy level?
the electron will gain energy

What happens when an electron moves to a higher level?
The electron gains energy.
How can an electron in an atom lose energy to transition from a higher energy level to a lower energy level?
An electron in an atom can lose energy to transition from a higher energy level to a lower energy level by emitting a photon of light. This process is known as emission.
What state is an electron in when is has moved from a lower energy level to a higher energy level?
excited
When an electron drops from a higher energy level to a lower energy level is it taken from the environment?
No, when an electron drops from a higher energy level to a lower energy level within an atom, the energy released in the form of a photon is given off by the electron itself, not taken from the environment. This process is known as emission.
What is the Principal Energy Level?
The principal energy level is the main energy level of an electron in an atom, designated by the quantum number "n." It indicates the approximate energy and distance of an electron from the nucleus. The higher the principal energy level, the higher the energy and distance of the electron from the nucleus.
If an electron has absorbed energy and has shifted to a higher energy level the electron is said to be what?
This electron is called excited.
