Ground vs. Excited State Ground State – electrons are
in positions of lowest energy possible (normal)
Excited State – electron is in a temporary position of higher energy than ground state Very unstable; the electron
quickly returns to the ground state

Compared to a sodium atom in the ground state, a sodium atom in the excited state must have
A.) a greater number of electrons
B.) a smaller number of electrons
C.) an electron with greater energy

Changes in Electron Energy
Electrons must gain energy to transition to the excited state
Electrons release energy transitioning back to the ground state Be
Ground Excited
e- gains energy
Excited Ground
e- releases energy

Which electron transition represents a gain of energy?
A.) from 2nd to 3rd shell
B.) from 2nd to 1st shell
C.) from 3rd to 2nd shell
D.) from 3rd to 1st shell
The farther from the nucleus the greater the energy

Emission of Energy All elements have a unique energy level
system (due to differences in nuclear charge) The amount of energy released when
returning from excited state to ground state is different for each element Multiple transitions are possible
Some of the energy released has wavelengths within the visible light range

Atomic Spectra If the light emitted by an electron is
passed through a prism it produces an atomic emission spectrum
The results are lines of light at specific energy levels
The atomic spectra of a given element is unique and can be used to identify an element
