Electrons can be excited in an element by supplying energy to the molecule of the elements. Further eletrons get excited in chemical reactions

Why are most elements gaining or losing one or more electrons?

it's changing into the excited state


Do atoms in the excited state have more electrons than in the ground state?

Yes, because an atom in an excited state will normally give off energy and go to a less-excited state or to its ground state. Some atoms have long-lived excited states and are called "metastable".


What is meant by excited state of an electron?

When the electrons are at higher energy level,they are said to be excited state.


State in which electrons have jumped to a higher energy level?

state in which electrons have absorbed energy and "jumped" to a higher energy level


The state of matter in which electrons have absorbed energy is called?

Excited Electrons


Why do elements go from ground state to excited state?

Elements go from the ground state to the excited state if some form of energy is supplied. Otherwise, they stay in the ground state.


When electrons absorbs energy they exist for a short time higher energy level. These electrons are said to be?

"Excited", or in an "excited state".


An atom is in an excited state when it has its lowest energy?

No, when an atom is in an excited state, its electrons have gained energy, and they proceed to lose it when they fall back into their normal energy levels


A state in which an atom has more energy than it does at its ground state?

An atom is in an excited state when it has absorbed energy, causing its electrons to move to higher energy levels. These excited electrons are unstable and eventually return to their ground state by emitting energy in the form of light or heat.


How does the electrons become excited?

Electrons become excited when they absorb energy, such as from heat, light, or electricity. This extra energy causes the electrons to move to a higher energy level away from the nucleus of an atom, creating an excited state.


How are electrons become excited?

Electrons become excited when they absorb energy, such as through exposure to light or heat. This additional energy causes the electrons to move to a higher energy level, creating an excited state. The electrons will eventually release this energy by returning to their original, lower energy state, emitting light or heat in the process.


Is the electron configuration of sodium an excited state or ground state?

The electron configuration of sodium in its ground state is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1. This is not an excited state configuration, as the electrons are in their lowest energy levels available in the atom. Excited states occur when electrons are in higher energy levels than the ground state configuration.
