To solve the question, "When an electron makes transition from its stable orbit to another stable orbit of lower energy, where does the remaining energy go?", we can break it down into the following steps: ### Step 1: Understand Electron Orbits Electrons in an atom occupy specific energy levels or orbits. Each orbit corresponds to a certain energy state. The energy of these orbits can be described by the formula: \[ E_n = -\frac{13.6 \, \text{eV}}{n^2} \] for hydrogen, where \( n \) is the principal quantum number. ### Step 2: Identify the Transition ...
