Both involve chemical bonds breaking
Answer:
B. Excited state
Explanation:
Energy levels higher than the ground state are called the excited states. This concept is based on the premise that electrons can move round the nucleus in certain permissibe orbits or energy levels.
The ground state is the lowest energy state available to the electron. This is usually the most stable state.
The excited state is any level higher than the ground state. An electron in an energy level has a definite amount of energy associated with it at that level.
Answer:
An ionic bond is formed by the complete transfer of some electrons from one atom to another. The atom losing one or more electrons becomes a cation or a positively charged ion. The atom gaining one or more electrons becomes an anion which is a negatively charged ion.
