Consider the change in effective nuclear charge experienced by a 2p electron as we proceed from C to N. (a) Based on a simple model in which core electrons screen the valence electrons completely and valence electrons do not screen other valence electrons, what do you predict for the change in from C to N? (b) What change do you predict using Slater's rules? (c) The actual change in from C to N is 0.70+. Which approach to estimating is more accurate? (d) The change in from N to O is smaller than that from C to N. Can you provide an explanation for this observation?
