Answer:

B. Electrons can exist in between energy levels .

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of energy for each energy level in an atom is quantized. Thus, electrons are not allowed to be found in between the energy levels.

When an electron absorbs energy, it becomes excited. And it would jump to a higher energy level whose energy is equal to the new energy of the electron. If the value of its new energy is less than the energy of higher levels but greater than the energy of it current energy level, the electron remains in its initial level. This is because, electrons do not exist in between energy levels .
