Question

10 multiple choice 1 point where are the lowest energy electrons located? innermost shell outermost shell middle shell in the nucleus

Explanation:

Electrons in an atom are arranged in shells (energy levels) around the nucleus. The innermost shell (closest to the nucleus) has the lowest energy because electrons are attracted to the positively charged nucleus, and being closer means less energy is needed to stay there. The outermost shell has the highest energy for electrons, the middle shell has intermediate energy, and electrons are not in the nucleus (nucleus contains protons and neutrons). So the lowest energy electrons are in the innermost shell.

Answer:

Innermost shell
