Electrons

Back

Negatively charged particles in an atom.

Front

Energy Levels

Back

Areas in the atoms where the electrons orbit the nucleus.

Front

Ground State Energy Level

Back

The location of the electrons in "normal" state where all electrons are in their lowest possible energy level.

Front

Excited State Energy Level

Back

The location of the electron in a "higher" energy level after it has absorbed heat energy from a Bunsen burner.

Electromagnetic Spectrum

Back

The complete range of all types of electromagnetic radiation. It’s a rainbow of all types of light, even the ones that we cannot see.
