Answer;
-An electron may move to an electron shell farther away from the nucleus.
Explanation;
-Kinetic and potential energy of atoms result from the motion of electrons. When electrons are excited they move to a higher energy orbital farther away from the atom. The further the orbital is from the nucleus, the higher the potential energy of an electron at that energy level.
-When the electron returns to a low energy state, it releases the potential energy in the form of kinetic energy.
