On absorbing energy, an electron moves to an excited state (unstable state) from its ground state (stable state).  Since the electron is in unstable state so it tends to rearrange itself to return to its lowest energy state.  On returning to lowest energy state which is stable, it releases energy in the form of light.

Hence, option A that is the electron releases energy in the form of light on falling to lower energy state from excite state.

Answer:

If anything but H2O were found, it would be evidence of a chemical change. Therefore, 4 is the only viable evidence that it was a physical change of H2O liquid to H2O gas.

Compared to a 0.1 M aqueous solution of NaCl, a 0.8 M aqueous solution of NaCl has a
Ivenika [448]
Answer 2, because when you add salt to something, it cools faster (ex. When you add salt to an ice chest so that it stays cold) and it takes longer to boil (ex. When you boil salt out of ocean water so that its safe to drink) therefore, the more NaCl in the solution, the more it will exibit these properties
