What do you call the electrons located in an atom-ions outer most energy level?
Valence electrons.
Do electrons exist with specific levels of energy?
Yes, electrons in an atom exist in specific energy levels known as electron shells. These energy levels are quantized and discrete, with electrons occupying the lowest available energy level first before moving to higher ones.
What do you call the energy which is required to bond atoms together?
Covalent [the sharing of a pair of electrons] bond energy.
Is the outermost layer of the earth call the mantle?
No. The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.
What is the term for electromagnetic radiation that carries enough energy to remove electrons from matter?
We call that ionizing radiation.
What do you call the electrons located in an atom-ions outer most energy level?
Valence electrons.
What do you call each level of energy in the energy pyramid?
trophic level
What do you call the regions of the atoms in which electrons move?
Energy levels or orbital

Why does one electron in a potassium atom go into the fourth energy level instead of squeezing into the third energy level along with eight alredy?
The aufbau principle (text books may also call it the Madelung ordering or the Klechkowski rule) predicts the order in which orbitals are filled. The 4s orbital is filled before the 3d orbitals. Wikipedia has an article see link

No. The outermost layer of the Earth is called the crust.
What causes an electron to emit light?
Simple answer: Valence electrons losing energy. Expanded answer: Atoms, the most basic unit of matter, contain charged particles call electrons and protons, along with neutral particles called neutrons. Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are arranged in specific areas called shells (or orbits). When the electrons are excited (for example, by heat), they jump from one shell to another. Once they fall back they start to emit photons--light. Each element has a different color based on how many valence electrons it has.

We call that ionizing radiation.
What did bohr call each possible orbit?
Niels Bohr referred to each possible orbit of an electron around the nucleus as a "stationary state." In these stationary states, electrons can occupy specific energy levels without radiating energy. The energy levels are quantized, meaning electrons can only exist in these distinct orbits and not in between them. Each stationary state corresponds to a specific energy level, allowing for the characteristic spectral lines of atoms.
What powers Star Wars blasters?
The laser that is shot out of a blaster is powered by a gaseous substance. It worked by introducing the energy to a medium. Most of the gas that was used was Tibanna Gas. When an atom of the medium was exited by the energy source the electrons that were available would transfer or "jump" to another, higher energy level. When they calmed down and returned to their original energy level a photon was released. The photon is what we would call the "laser beam". And there you have it.
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.
