What must happen for an electron to return to its original energy level from a higher energy level?

An electron should emit energy to return to its original energy level from a higher energy level.

<h3>What is an energy level?</h3>

Energy levels (also called electron shells) are fixed distances from the nucleus of an atom where electrons may be found.

The electron absorbs the energy and jumps to a higher energy level. In the reverse process, emission, the electron returns to the ground state by releasing the extra energy that is absorbed.

Hence, an electron should emit energy to return to its original energy level from a higher energy level.

What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron?
vazorg [7]

Answer:

<em>What can be added to an atom to cause a nonvalence electron in the atom to temporarily become a valence electron </em>is<u><em> energy</em></u><em>.</em>

Explanation:

The normal state of the atoms, where all the electrons are occupying the lowest possible energy level, is called ground state.

The <em>valence electrons</em> are the electrons that occupy the outermost shell, this is the electrons in the highest main energy level (principal quantum number) of the atom.

So, a <em>nonvalence electron</em> occupies an orbital with less energy than what a valence electron does; in consequence, in order to a nonvalence electron jump from its lower energy level to the higher energy level of a valence electron, the former has to absorb (gain) energy.

This new state is called excited state and is temporary: the electron promoted to the higher energy level will emit the excess energy, in the form of light (photons), to come back to the lower energy level and so the atom return to the ground state.

A particular brand of gasoline has a density of 0.737 g/ml at 25 ∘c. how many grams of this gasoline would fill a 13.0 gal tank
Usimov [2.4K]

Density of gasoline is 0.737 g/mL and volume of tank is 13.0 gal.

Since, 1 US gal=3.78 L

Volume of tank in L will be:

V=13.0 gal(\frac{3.78 L}{1 gal})=49.14 L

Also, 1 L=1000 mL

Thus,

V=49.14 L(\frac{1000 mL}{1 L})=49140 mL

Mass of gasoline can be calculated as follows:

m=d×V

Here, d is density and V is volume thus,

m=0.737 g/mL\times 49140 mL=3.62\times 10^{4}g

Therefore, mass of gasoline will be 3.62\times 10^{4}g.
