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.

I looked on a solubility chart to answer this question, and hydroxides are generally insoluble (with some exceptions of course). However, it says to consider $Mg(OH)_{2}$ as an insoluble substance, though it may be moderately soluble.
