Answer 1

the effective nuclear charge is the net positive change experienced by an electron in a polyelectronic atom is known as Z effective

Answer 2

Answer:

The effective nuclear charge (often symbolized as Zeff or Z*) is the net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. The term “effective” is used because the shielding effect of negatively charged electrons prevents higher orbital electrons from experiencing the full nuclear charge.
