Question

When electrons absorb energy they are able to
a. move from exited states down to their ground states.
b. move from their ground states up to excited states.
c. attach to the nucleus.
d. form a bond with the nearest proton.

Answer 1

B. Move from their ground states up to excited states

:)

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is B. Move from their ground states up to excited states.

Explanation:

According to quantum mechanics, an excited state of a system such as electrone, atoms or molecules, occurs when they tend to have or receive a greater amount of energy than in their ground state; in this way an electron after absorbing energy, can pass from the ground state to an excited state of greater energy.
