What's your thoughts on this?

mayankdevnani · Answer

i think it is true

mayankdevnani · Answer

because when ever energy is absorbed , it actually means it is going to be decrease in its principal quantum number i.e n . So, energy becomes lower than previous absorbed energy.
As infrared energy is less than visible light .As a result, infrared energy is re-emitted
