Answer:

According to Bohr, the amount of energy needed to move an electron from one zone to another is a fixed, finite amount. ... The electron with its extra packet of energy becomes excited, and promptly moves out of its lower energy level and takes up a position in a higher energy level. This situation is unstable, however.
