Explain why Mg experiences a greater Zeff than does P.
Mg has Electronic configuration = [Ne] 3s2 &
P has Electronic configuration = [Ne] 3s2 3p3
Shielding Effect :- Ability of Nucleus to hold the Electrons towards itself is known as shielding Effect or screening Effect.
Shielding Effect order : s > p > d > f
Hence inner orbital s has more shielding Effect as compare to outer f orbital.
Effective Nuclear Charge (Zeff) :- This is the Net positive charge experienced by the electron from the nucleus.
Effective Nuclear charge of Mg is greater than P because In Mg(magnesium) 3s2 has greater shielding Effect as compare to 3p3 in P(phosphorus).
a) Determine Zeff for a 3p electron in P, Cl, and Ar. Explain how Zeff compares to the relative sizes of these atoms, and which 3p electron is more stable. Please help on this question.
Why does savings = investment in equilibrium? Explain your answer. What if savings was greater than investment? What would happen? What if savings was less than investment? What would happen? Explain your answers.
why does some materials have
greater than Egap give an example?
Why does some materials have E=h nu greater than Egap give an example?
Rank as indicated: A. Smallest to largest Zeff: Cl, Mg, P B. Largest to smallest radius: S, Cl, Se C. Largest to smallest ionization energy: Ba, Br, Ca D. Smallest to largest radius: O2-, Na1+, Ne E. Lowest to highest electronegativity: O, Al, S
why does the rolling bicycle have greater stability than one at rest
Why is the pKa2 of H3PO4 greater than pKa1 and why is pKa3 greater than pKa2?
Classify each statement about effective nuclear charge, Zeff, as true or false Effective nuclear charge is dependent on the number of electrons present in the atom In a Be atom, a 1s electron has a greater Zeff than a 2s electron Across a period, as Zeff increases atomic size decreases Electrons in a p orbital are more effective than those in other orbitals at shielding other electrons from the nuclear charge A 1s electron in a Be atom has a...
