Answer:
Absorbs energy
Explanation:
As an electron in an atom moves from the ground state to the excited state, the electron absorbs energy.
Electrons moves around in permissible orbits around the nucleus of an atom.
- An electron in a certain energy level has a definite amount of energy associated with it at that level.
- When an electron in ground state absorbs energy, it moves to a higher energy level.
- When an electron in excited state loses energy, it moves to a lower energy level.
The transition of electrons from one level to another involves loss or gain of energy.
