Question

Which of bromine's electrons has lowest effective nuclear charge?

Answer 1

4p orbitals are farthest from the nucleus of bromine atom. Thus, the electrons in the 4p orbital will experience the lowest effective nuclear charge. Also because these 4p electrons are shielded by the electrons present in the 2p and 3p orbitals, they have the lowest effective nuclear charge. 2 years ago.

Answer 2

4p orbials are farthest from the nucleus of bromine atom.thus the electrons in 4p orbitals will experience the lowest effective nuclear charge
