Ground state means that an electron is...

• at its lowest possible potential energy

• in the first shell of an atom

• laying low for the weekend

• removed from an atom

In order to go from ground state to an excited state, an electron must

• emit energy

• absorb energy

• rotate

• wiggle

When an electron returns to ground state from an excited state, the atom will

• emit energy

• absorb energy

• rotate

• wiggle
