may be higher... as the electrons will be free from the force of attraction of nucleus

mayankdevnani · Answer

As we further move away from nucleus,the electrons have lower energy due to lack of force of attraction due to nucleus.

Thank you ;-; I love learning! :D

cydney_morgan · Answer

Wait, so is it higher or lower? I'm confused, my mom says they stay the same?

mayankdevnani · Answer

first, can we say that we move away from nucleus means that we are adding electrons.Right?

mayankdevnani · Answer

can we ?

cydney_morgan · Answer

Yeah I think so?

cydney_morgan · Answer

Yes I'm sure.

mayankdevnani · Answer

correct.That's true

mayankdevnani · Answer

and tell me when we add electrons,we supply energy by overcoming its stable configuration.

mayankdevnani · Answer

correct or not?  @Cydney_Morgan

cydney_morgan · Answer

Well, I think that is correct  but I may not be right, because when they move they are using energy right? >.<

mayankdevnani · Answer

you are right

cydney_morgan · Answer

:D

mayankdevnani · Answer

and tell me which have higher energy?
