The electrons move around the protons, which are at the center of the atom. How does the energy of an electron change when the electron moves closer to the nucleus? ... When an electron moves from a lower to a higher energy level, theelectron...

Answer:  Potential energy decreases.

Explanation:  As we know that the electrons and nucleus are held together by the electrostatic forces of attraction due to nature of opposite charges of the same.

Thus when electron moves closer to the nucleus, the potential energy of the electron will decrease as the forces of attraction between the electrons and the  nucleus will increase thus providing overall stability to the system.
