Answer: A photon of energy was released.

Explanation: The energy of the orbitals keep on increasing as the size of the orbitals keep on increasing or the value of n keeps on increasing.

The electrons absorb energy when they are irradiated or put at high temperatures and move to higher energy states. The electrons then get back to their ground state by releasing energy in the form of radiations. Thus when an electron move from n = 2 to shell n = 1, the absorbed energy is given off in form of photons of energy.

Energy is released or absorbed in the form of discrete packets of energy called as photons.

Which is an acceptable Lewis structure for a diatomic nitrogen molecule?
timofeeve [1]
Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons (ve-), so a diatomic nitrogen molecule will have twice as many, 10 valence electrons. Then, just draw electrons in pairs of 2 until you both get ride of all of them (reach 0) and you fill every atom (eight electrons each). It can be drawn either way, the important thing is that there are 3 electron pairs shared between the two atoms.

How do the process of crabon cycle contribute to climate change.​
bonufazy [111]

Explanation:

Carbon that is a part of rocks and fossil fuels like oil, coal, and natural gas may be held away from the rest of the carbon cycle for a long time. These changes add more greenhouse gases in our atmosphere and this causes climate change.
