The property of discrete energy levels in an atom's electron shells shows that electrons are quantized. Electrons can only occupy specific energy levels within an atom, and they cannot exist between these levels. This quantization of energy levels is a fundamental aspect of quantum mechanics.
They have fixed energy values.
It means the charge is an integer multiple of some basic charge. If the charge consists of a certain number electrons, you can have 1 electron, 2 electrons, 3 electrons, etc., but you can't have 1.5 electrons, or pi electrons.
An electric charge is a fundamental property of matter that can be positive or negative. It is responsible for electromagnetic interactions between particles, such as attraction or repulsion. Electric charges are quantized, meaning they exist in discreet amounts and are carried by particles like electrons and protons.
The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon that can only be explained by assuming that light is quantized. In this effect, electrons are ejected from a material when it is exposed to light of a certain frequency. The energy of the ejected electrons is dependent on the frequency of the light, supporting the idea that light is made up of discrete packets of energy called photons.
Yes, matter is quantized, meaning it is made up of discrete units called atoms, which in turn are made up of subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons, and electrons. These subatomic particles have quantized properties like energy levels and angular momentum.
each electron has its own "address"
Each electron has its own "address."

Quantized. (Number 4 if you are using what I think you are using.)
It has a specific value
For a property to be quantized means that it can only take on discrete values rather than a continuous range. This concept is often encountered in quantum mechanics, where certain physical properties, such as energy levels of electrons in an atom, exist in distinct "quantized" states. In essence, quantization implies that there is a minimum unit or "quantum" of the property, leading to a structured and often non-linear behavior of systems at microscopic scales.
Yes, Niels Bohr proposed the idea of quantized electron orbits around the nucleus in his atomic model in 1913. He suggested that electrons can only occupy specific quantized orbits with fixed energy levels.
An example of a quantized condition is the energy levels of electrons in an atom. Electrons can only occupy specific energy levels, and they cannot exist in between these levels. When an electron transitions between these quantized energy states, it absorbs or emits a discrete amount of energy, typically in the form of a photon. This quantization is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics.

Electrical charge is quantized. (negative in an electron, as an electron has exactly -1 fundamental unit of charge) The other two would be the energy levels in the atoms and the emitted energy.
Yes, electricity exists in discrete amounts that equal some whole number of electrons.
