The correct answer is: D) excited

A molecule is in an excited state when its energy level is higher than the ground state. That molecule stays in excited state for short time and then returns to a state with lower energy. This return to a lower energy level is described as decay and is the inverse process of excitation.

The transition from ground to excited state of an atom is possible if electrons gain energy that is higher than the difference in energies between the two energy orbits.

What fronts move from the south to the north
dezoksy [38]

A warm fronts move from the south to the north

<u>Explanation</u>:

A warm front are formed when a warm mass of air is pushed into a cold air mass. Since  the warm air mass at surface rises above the cold mass of air they often causes stormy weathers. Also due the difficulty of warm air in pushing the cold dense air across the surface of the earth make the warm fronts to move slower when compared to cold fronts. Unstable air produces thunderstorms around the warm fronts. solid red line with red, filled-in semicircles is used to represent a warm front on the map.
