Energy is ________ when an electron jumps from higher energy level to lower energy level.

Q. When an electron jumps from a lower energy level to a higher one, it releases a photon.

Q. When an electron of

atom jumps from a higher to lower energy state, then:

Q. Read the given statements carefully.
Statement-1: When an electron jumps from higher energy level to lower energy level, absorption of energy takes place.
Statement-2: Excited state provides instability to the electron. Thus, the electron tends to come back to its ground state to gain stability.
Now, choose the correct option.

Q. (a) As long as an electron revolves in a particular orbit, the electron does not lose its energy. Therefore, these orbits are called stationary orbits and the electrons are said to be in stationary energy states.
(b) Each orbit or shell is associated with a definite amount of energy. Hence these are also called energy levels.
(c) An electron jumps from a lower energy level to a higher energy level, by absorbing energy. It jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, by emitting energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation.
(d) Electrons move around the nucleus in specified circular paths called orbits or shells or energy levels and are designated as K, L, M, N shells respectively.
