When an electron is ejected from the surface what type of energy does the electron possess?
The ejected electron possesses kinetic energy as it moves away from the surface.
What is it called when sunlight excites an electron?
The physics term we generally apply is photoelectric effect. Back in the day (and none of those guys are still around), it might have been called the photovoltaic effect. You need a link, and we've got one for ya. It's to Wikipedia's post on this topic.
What is ejected when light strikes a metal surface?
Electrons are ejected from a metal surface when light strikes it. This phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect. The ejected electrons are called photoelectrons.
Nucleus has no electron yet can eject them.Why?
In beta decay (β⁻), a neutron converts to a proton, and emits an electron and an electron antineutrino. So the electron wasn't there from the start; it gets created as part of the beta decay.
What happens when an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved?
When an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved, the electron can move to a higher energy level or be ejected from the atom, leading to the atom becoming ionized or excited.
When an electron is ejected from the surface what type of energy does the electron possess?
The ejected electron possesses kinetic energy as it moves away from the surface.
A high-speed electron ejected from a nucleus durng radioactive decay is called a?
an alpha particle
What is ejected from a nucleus when a neutron is converted into a proton?
Electron also referred to as a beta particle in this instance
What is auger effect?
When photons of sufficient energy are incident on a surface, an electron is ejected out from the core shell. The electron from the p-orbital or any other orbital of higher energy loses that much energy to fill up the gap created by the loss of this core electron. The energy lost by the p-orbital electron is absorbed by another electron in the same or higher shell, causing it to eject from the atom. This second atom is called the "Auger electron" and the effect is called Auger effect.
What is the amount of blood ejected from the heart in one minute called?
The amount of blood ejected from the heart with each beat is called the "stroke volume".

What kind of decay takes place when an isotope loses an electron?
If the isotope loses the electron from its nucleus it is called beta decay. However it did not really lose the electron, as the electron never existed in the nucleus prior to the beta decay event happening. Beta decay that generates an electron happens when a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and a neutrino: the proton usually remains in the nucleus, while the electron and neutrino (which is nearly impossible to detect, but it is always generated) are ejected from the nucleus at high velocity.If the isotope loses the electron from its electron shells it is not any type of decay, it is simple ionization of the atom.
What is a vent in the earths crust from which lava and other materials are ejected called?
A vent in the Earth's crust from which lava and other materials are ejected is called a volcano.

Is there any situation where an electron will have a charge not quantized ExOutside of an atom and if so what would happen if it had exess energy when it goes to an orbit?
The charge of an electron is always −1.602176487(40)×10−19 Coulomb. If an electron is ejected from it's orbital the energy it absorbs is in the form of kinetic energy i.e. how fast it moves. If the electron goes back into an orbital it will only be allowed in an orbital that allows for it's energy. If an atom has an electron and that electron absorbs the energy from an incoming photon it may jump up to a higher orbital or it may be ejected. The ejected electron is the principle of the photo-electric effect.
What happens when an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved?
When an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved, the electron can move to a higher energy level or be ejected from the atom, leading to the atom becoming ionized or excited.
