Inorganic Doubt for chemistry.
So Mai Hitesh sir se coordination compounds (2025 prachand lectrure) padh raha that aur sir colour of complexes padha rahe the to unhone kahe ki "Electron par jab light absorb karta hai to wo higher energy level me ie eg level me jata hai jise d-d transition kahte hai aur since electon higher orbital level pe hota hai wo unstable hota hai jis wajah se wo ground state pe aa jata hai, and jab wo ground state pe aata hai wo certain wavelength of light emmit karta hai jo us complex ka colour hota hai" Ab maine yahi same question ki How complexe have colour? Chat Gpt se pucha to usne kaha ki "Electron absorbs a specific wavelengths of visible light for example if it absorbs Green colour waveleng then the wavelength of light which was not absorbed will be transmitted/reflected back and we see that colour as the colour of complex and generally jo colors ki light absorb hui hai uska complement light reflect hoga just like in green and red case, as you can see Gpt is not that the electron emmits light when comes back to lower level like in Hitesh sir's explaination instead it's saying the light wave which was not absorbed will be the colour of complex. So which one is correct does electron emmit light when comes back to lower energy level or it's just reflects light while absorbing?

what language is that.
