Answer:
Energy is released and emission occurs.
Explanation:
When an electron moves from a level of higher energy to a lower energy level, energy is released and emission occurs during this transition. But the amount of energy that is released is in specific quantum amounts.
It is because of the increase in their energy that the electrons move from the ground to an excited state (from closer to the nucleus to farther from the nucleus).
Answer: A. A photon was released.
An electron moved from a higher energy level to a lower energy level. What most likely happened during the transition? (5 points)
A. A photon was released.
B. A photon was absorbed.
C. A fixed amount of energy was absorbed.
D. A random amount of energy was released.
Explanation:
I just took the test and A. A photon was released is the correct answer!
Good Luck!!
( P.S.- I just used the other answer on the test and it was incorrect, but this one is correct because I finished the test and got the answer key!)
