Question

Among the given pairs of orbitals which orbital will experience the larger effective nuclear charge? (i) 2s and 3s, (ii) 4d and 4f, (iii) 3d and 3p.

Answer 1

4d and 4f because there is no shelding effect in them compare to other

Answer 2

Atomic charge is characterized as the net positive charge experienced by an electron in the orbital of a multi-electron iota.

The closer the orbital, the more prominent is the atomic charge experienced by the electron (s) in it.

3p will encounter more noteworthy atomic charge since it is nearer to the core than 3f on the grounds that 3p is nearer to core than 3f.
