Which of the following occurs when an electron moves from a higher energy shell to a lower energy shell? A. A neutron is always lost. B. A proton is always gained. C. Energy is released in the form of radiation. D. The electron must be transferred to another atom.

Respuesta :

Energy is released in the form of radiation. For an electron to move from a lower shell to a higher one, energy must be put in. This means that going from a higher shell to a lower one, it must lose energy to be in a less excited state. The electron must emit this radiation in the form of light with a wavelength equivalent to the amount of energy put in.
