This is called the "ground state", all electrons occupy the orbitals of lowest energy available to them.
When the atom is in its ground state.
in most stable state.
no
False
An excited atom is one in which the outer electrons are not in their lowest level.
electrons are outside the nucleus of an atom they have the highest energy very near to the nucleus and as they are getting far the energy is decreasing
The term for an atom whose electrons have the lowest possible energies is "ground state." In this state, electrons are in their lowest energy levels or orbitals, closest to the nucleus. Excited states refer to when electrons are in higher energy levels, further away from the nucleus.
The correct answer would be ground state
Ground state
Electrons are generally gathered around an atom beginning with the lowest possible quantum numbers.
ground state
in most stable state.
It's actually completely opposite, electrons can have only specific energies (non-continuous) when the electrons are a part of an atom(s).
no
1. Atoms do not have energy levels unlike particles like electrons etc.2. The lowest energy for atoms will be 0 at absolute zero temp of 0 deg Kelvin.3. For electrons in all atoms lowest energy is that of 2 electrons nearest to the nucleus.
False
No. Electrons will orbit around an atom only at specific energies (which change depending on the atom's atomic number and atomic mass). If you try to use a photon to change the energy of an electron and move it to another orbit path (or "energy level"), and the photon has the wrong energy in it, the electron won't change its orbit.
An excited atom is one in which the outer electrons are not in their lowest level.
