A photon is emitted when an electron falls from a higher to lower orbital. A photon is an elementary particles, the quantum of light and all other forms of electromagnetic radiation.
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 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, it absorbs energy. This energy is typically in the form of electromagnetic radiation or photons.
Lots of wrong answers out there, tested this on school, the answer is: Drops from a higher 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.
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.
The energy of the photon is the same as the energy lost by the electron
All transitions in which electrons move from a lower to a higher level require a gain of energy. example: 2nd to 3rd shell
The electron absorbs energy and moves to a higher energy level. This process is known as excitation. The electron can then release the absorbed energy by emitting a photon and returning to a lower energy state.

When an atom emits light, an electron in the atom transitions from a higher energy state to a lower energy state. This transition releases energy in the form of a photon of light. The atom remains the same element before and after emitting light.
You may be confusing "proton" with "photon". A proton is a positively-charged particle contained within the nucleus of an atom. A photon is a discrete unit of energy normally expressed as light. Around the nucleus of the atom, there are some electrons in energy levels. When an atom absorbs energy, it absorbs a specific amount, or "quantum" of energy and the electron boosted to a higher energy level. When the electron drops to a lower energy level, it emits a photon in the form of light at a specific energy and frequency.
