Which statement is true about the ground state (original energy level) and the excited state of an electron?
The ground state is the highest energy level of an electron.
The excited state is the lowest energy level of an electron.
The ground state is the lowest energy level of an electron.
When an electron goes from the ground state to an excited state it releases light energy.
