Explain what is meant by the term "excited state" as it applies to an electron. Is an electron in an excited state higher or low
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Excited state of an electron is the state attained by an electron after it has absorbed energy and it moves further from the nucleus.

an electron is at higher energy when excited and at lower energy when at ground state.

an excited electron is less stable due to the decrease in the nuclear force of attraction and the grounded electron is more stable due to it's close distance to the nucleus.
