Final answer:

Atoms experience electronic transitions when excited, leading to absorption of energy and emission of light.


Explanation:

When atoms get excited, they undergo electronic transitions where electrons move from one energy level to another. If the transition is to a higher energy level, energy is absorbed, resulting in the atom emitting a particular color of light.

The excess energy is released as photons when the atom or molecule returns to a lower energy state, a process known as emission. This emission of light can occur after absorption of a photon or as a result of a chemical reaction.
