Which of the following statements is true about the energy levels of an electron in an atom?
Correct Answer: The energy levels are quantized.
- Step 1: Understand that electrons are found in atoms and they have energy levels.
- Step 2: Know that energy levels are like steps on a ladder; electrons can only stand on certain steps.
- Step 3: Realize that these steps (energy levels) are not continuous; they are specific and fixed values.
- Step 4: Conclude that because of this, we say the energy levels are 'quantized'.
