Question

Select the correct answer. Consider an atom that has an electron in an excited state. The electron falls to a lower energy level. What effect does that have on the electron? A. The electron releases energy in the form of light. B. The electron absorbs energy in the form of light. C. The electron retains its energy without any change. D. The electron transfers its energy to other electrons.

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The more energy u give the more the electron is able to get far away from the nucleas. So the opposite happens when u take away some energy, it will falll on lower energy state and will radiate the energy difference in form of a photon/light.
