What is the number for electrons on hydrogen's first energy level?
Hydrogen's electron configuration is 1s1. It has only one electron. It is located in the first energy level.
What is the hydrogen main e level?
Hydrogen has only one electron.
What is the difference between excited hydrogen atom and any other atom?
Hydrogen atom = 1 proton 1 electron Hydrogen's 1 electron occupies the lowest energy level, 1s orbital. The atom is therefore in its "ground state". When a photon of correct frequency "collides" with a electron in hydrogen's 1s orbital the energy contained in the photon is transferred to the electron. The electron then gets added energy, so it is at a higher energy state. When it reaches this higher energy state the electron jumps to the next energy level and there it starts its new orbit. Hydrogen atom is now "excited" For any other atoms it is the same thing because all atoms can undergo excitation. The only difference between hydrogen's 1 electron and other atom's many electrons is WHICH ELECTRON will be "excited"
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.
What is happening within the hydrogen atom to create emission lines?
The electron in the atom becomes excited as something adds energy to it, moving it to a higher energy level. When the electron moves back to the normal energy level, called a ground state, it emits light of a given frequency.
When radiation is absorbed by a hydrogen electron the hydrogen atom changes its ground state to?
When a hydrogen electron absorbs radiation, it moves to an excited state. The electron jumps to a higher energy level, causing the hydrogen atom to change its ground state to an excited state.
What is the energy of the electron in a hydrogen atom in an excited state of 5s1 when considering its configuration?
The energy of the electron in a hydrogen atom in an excited state of 5s1 is higher than in the ground state. This is due to the electron being in a higher energy level, specifically the 5s orbital. The configuration of the electron in this excited state indicates that it is in the fifth energy level and occupies the s subshell.
What happens when an electron in a hydrogen atom moves from higher energy level to the lowest level?
When an electron in a hydrogen atom moves from a higher energy level to the lowest level, it emits a photon of energy equal to the difference in energy between the two levels. This photon is released as light, and the electron transitions to the ground state. This process is known as an electron transition or de-excitation.
Does H have seven electrons in their outermost level?
No, hydrogen (H) has one electron in its outermost level.

What color would be given off by an electron shifting from level 6 to level 2 in hydrogen?
Hydrogen has only one electron on one shell.
How much energy is required to ionize a hydrogen atom containing an electron in the n4 level?
The energy required to ionize a hydrogen atom with an electron in the n4 level is 0.85 electron volts.

What is the electron configuration of hydrogen?
For hydrogen atoms, it is 1s1. For hydrogen positive ions (protons), it is 1s0. For hydride ions, it is 1s2 or [He]-.
How do you explain the diagram that shows 4 energy levels of hydrogen - 1 at the bottom 4 at the top - the values are n4-0.85eV n3-1.51eV n2-3.4eV n1-13.6eV?
The diagram shows the ionization energies of hydrogen. The ionization energy for a ground-state electron in hydrogen is 13.6eV. Let's jump. An electron orbits an atom of hydrogen in as low an energy level as possible. That's the ground state of hydrogen. To tear that electron away, it takes some amount of energy. In this case, it takes 13.6eV to strip off that electron. But what if the electron is in the next higher allowable energy level because the gas it hot? In that case, it takes less energy to tear that electron away because you've got a "head start" owing to the fact that the electron is in a higher orbital than the ground state. And what if it's in the next higher allowable energy level? Or the next? Less and less energy is required to strip off the electron as it moves to higher energy levels. These are the ionization energies of hydrogen. These energy levels are specific to hydrogen. Each other element will have a different set if ionization energies associated with it. And with atoms with many electrons and complex electron structures, the problem can quickly become very complex.
