current attempt in progress
when a low energy atom absorbs a photon, the atom is transformed from
an excited state to a ground state.
an ionized state to a ground state.
an ionized state to an excited state.
a ground state to an excited state.
a ground state to another ground state.
Brief Explanations
An atom in its lowest - energy state is the ground state. When it absorbs a photon, it gains energy and moves to a higher - energy state, which is an excited state.
