Question

What happens to the electrons in an atom when it is heated?

Answer 1

Answer:

When the electrons in the atom are excited, for example by being heated, the additional energy pushes the electrons to higher energy orbitals. When the electrons fall back down and leave the excited state, energy is re-emitted in the form of a photon. ... When excited, an electron moves to a higher energy level/orbital.
