Why do electrons transition between energy levels within the atom, and how do we detect these transitions?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electrons transition between energy levels in an atom due to gain or loss of energy. An electron may gain energy and move from its ground state to one of the accessible excited states. The electron quickly returns to ground state, emitting the energy previously absorbed as a photon of light. The wavelength of light emitted is measured using powerful spectrometers.

Atoms can be excited thermally or by irradiation with light of appropriate frequency.

What would indicate that a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire?
Lina20 [59]

Any change in which the composition of material does not change that is it retains its identity but changes its state or form is known as a physical change.

The properties of metal to draw them into wires is known as ductility.  When a copper is drawn into wire the only change that occurs is change in its shape and size no change will take place into its composition that is the wires are still possessing the properties of copper metal. Thus, a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire.
