How does themagnitude of effective nuclear charge influence the electon affinity of an element ? |
| Answer» Solution :The NUCLEUS has postive CHARGE and hence it attrcts the eletrons present in the atom .As the distance of electons FORM the nucleus increses the attraction experienced by elctrons because of nuclear charge decreases .The NET nuclear ofrce of attraction experienced by the electron is CALLED effective nuclear charge .The greater the effective nuclear charge the higher is the electron affinity of an atom | |
