Which consequence results when an Auger electron emission fills a core-level orbital vacancy?

💡 Explanation

Auger emission causes further ionization, because the excited atom relaxes via the **Auger effect**, wherein an electron ejects another electron to fill the core hole, therefore more ions exist, rather than X-ray emission, without necessarily impacting the chemical bonds energies.
