They begin to electrolyze, a term used for giving off static charge.
Electrons are located in energy levels within the electron cloud.
When ions collide with atoms, they transfer energy through collisions with the outer electrons of the atom. This transfer of energy can disrupt the balance of the electrons in the atom, causing an electron to be knocked off or ejected. This process is known as ionization and can result in the creation of new ions.
The energy of electrons is expressed in eV (electron volts).
As the orbit of the electron increases, the electron's energy also increases. Electrons in higher energy orbits are farther from the nucleus and have more potential energy. Conversely, electrons in lower energy orbits are closer to the nucleus and have less energy.
Electrons transfer energy in the form of electrical energy. When electrons move through a conductor, they create an electric current that can carry energy from one point to another.
Electron carriers and energy carriers are related but not the same. Electron carriers (such as NADH and FADH2) transfer electrons in biochemical reactions, while energy carriers (such as ATP) store and transfer energy for cellular processes. Electrons are involved in the flow of energy within cells, but energy carriers can involve other forms of energy besides electrons.
The energy of a vibrating electron that does not collide with neighboring atoms can dissipate as electromagnetic radiation in the form of photons. This process is known as spontaneous emission. The electron can also transfer its energy to nearby electrons through a process called resonant energy transfer.
He said that electrons can become excited and begin to hop energy levels; when this happens an electron is in the excited state.
The term is "electron diffusion." In metals, free electrons can transfer energy through collisions with other atoms or electrons, leading to a net movement of charge known as electron diffusion.
Electrons are transferred from one reactant (reducing agent) to another (oxidizing agent). The reducing agent loses electrons (oxidation) and the oxidizing agent gains electrons (reduction). This electron transfer results in the generation of electrical energy or a chemical change in the substances involved in the reaction.
Electrons in the outermost electron shell have the most energy in an atom. The energy of an electron increases as it moves further away from the nucleus. Electrons in the innermost shell have the least energy, while electrons in the nucleus have the highest energy due to their proximity to the protons.

High-energy electrons from NADH and FADH2 are passed along the electron transport chain
The transfer of electrons along a series of proteins releasing energy as they pass is known as an electron transport chain. This process occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane during cellular respiration, leading to the production of ATP.
Because ions are only form by transfer of electrons and for this one one atom must have low ionization energy and other high electron affinity or their electronegativities difference is higher than 1.7.
