    The extra energy that the electron suddenly has had to

    come from somewhere, so I can assume that one of

    two things happened:

    either 1). A photon passed by and the electron absorbed it.

    or 2). Somebody hooked up a battery or a generator in

    such a way that the electron was bathed in a field of electrostatic

    potential, and suddenly had the get-up-and-go to jump to a higher

    energy level, and possibly even to leave its atom completely and

    zip over to a neighbor atom.
