When an electron jumps from energy level K to energy level L, why does the energy of the atom increase?
An electron revolving in an orbit (energy level) such as K, has a fixed amount of energy. When it jumps from K to L, it acquires energy of level L which is higher and thus the electron acquires more energy than it previously had. This leads to the overall increase in the energy of the atom.
