The light emitted from a flame is produced when electrons in an excited state
(1) absorb energy as they move to lower energy states
(2) absorb energy as they move to higher energy states
(3) release energy as they move to lower energy states
(4) release energy as they move to higher energy states



Answer :

The light emitted from a flame is produced when electrons in an excited state releases energy as they move to lower energy States.
Electrons in their ground state when excited absorb energy and move to higher energy states.
Absorption is when energy is absorbed by electrons and they move to a higher energy state
Emission is when electrons release that absorbed energy and move to a lower energy state
This release of energy results in emission of light from a flame
The correct answer is
Release energy as they move to lower energy states
