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.

(HELP PLEASE) which pair would have an electrostatic force of attraction between them?
NISA [10]

Answer: K+ and P 3−

Explanation:

Electrostatic force of attraction is the attraction between different molecules that comes from them being electrically charged.

For molecules to have an electrostatic force of attraction, they need to have opposing charges because like charges repel each other but opposite charges attract.

In the question above, the only option that has opposing charges is option D so this is the correct option.
