If an electron jumps from orbit A to orbit B it loses energy while it jumps from C to B it gains energy. Arrange the orbits in the increasing order of distance from the nucleus.

A

`A lt B lt C`

B

`C lt A lt B`

C

`C lt B lt A`

D

`A lt C lt B`

When an electron jumps from a higher orbit to a lower orbit, it loses energy and vice versa.
C is the K-shell near to nucleus.
B is the L-shell followed by C.
A is the M-shell followed by B.
`therefore` Increasing order of distance from the nucleus is `CltBltA`
