The figure below is a schematic energy diagram of an atom. What is depicted by the arrow shown in the diagram? E Select all that apply. O absorption of a photon O absorption of an electron O emission of a photon O emission of an electron O an electronic transition from the ground state to an excited state. O an electronic transition from an excited state to an excited state. an electronic transition from an excited state to the ground state.
Electronic Transitions and Spectroscopy
The term “electronic” connotes electron, and the term “transition” implies transformation. In a molecule, the electrons move from a lower to a higher energy state due to excitation. The two energy states, the ground state and the excited state are the lowest and the highest energy states, respectively. An energy change is observed with this transition, which depicts the various data related to the molecule.
Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is a part of experimental chemistry. It is a technique used in laboratories that involves projecting intense beams of radiation on a sample element. In response, the element ejects electrons for which the relative energies are measured.
