in case you dont want to read the answer is B
The statemengt is <em>false</em>. Electromgnetic waves do not require a medium to transfer energy. They can transfer energy through vacuum (empty space with nothing in it). If electrimagnetic waves needed a medium to move through from place to place, then we could never see the sun, and also it would get very cold here.
Chemical=B
Mechanical=C
Nuclear=A
Electromagnetic=D
Thermal=E
I think these are right but if not I’m sorry
Hope I helped :]
The correct answer is B.
Let us think of the classical theory first. In the classical theory, light is a wave that gives energy. This energy gradually helps the electron jump to a higher energy level.
In quantum theory, this is wrong; an electron cannot absorb a small amout of energy because there is not close enough state to jump to with that energy; only very specific amounts of energy lead to a change in orbital levels/ absorbance of energy. Also, each pair of energy levels has a specific energy difference that is needed from an electron so that it can move.
Hence, B is correct; all other sentences describe classical models of light-electron interactions
