Question

when an electron jumps from K to L shell the energy
1) kinetic energy decreases
2) kinetic energy increases
3) potential energy decreases
4) total energy increases
5) total energy increases

pick from the above 5 options and no spam

Answer 1

Answer:

d total energy increases

Explanation:

as from jumping lower to higher orbital electron becomes less stable and its total energy becomes less negative that is it increases

Answer 2

Explanation:

the total energy increases is correct as u require more and more energy as u go to higher shell . order is KLMN so e- gain more energy that's y it jumped to L shell
