Question

The energies of electrons are said to be quantized. Explain what this means. please explain.

Answer 1

For an electron to move from one energy level to another it requires the emission or absorption of an exact amount of energy, or quantum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

To move from one energy level to another, an electron must gain or lose just the right amount of energy. Electrons are said to be quantized because they need a quantum of energy to move to a different sublevel. ... When atoms absorb energy, electrons move into higher energy levels.
