The unpaired electrons in Al and Si are present in 3p orbital. Which electrons will experience more effective nuclear charge from the nucleus?

Answer»

Configuration of two elements are: Al (z = 13) = [Ne]10 3s2 3p1; Si (z = 14) [Ne]10 3s2 3p2.

The unpaired electrons in silicon (Si) will experience more effective nuclear charge because the atomic number of the element Si is more than that of Al.
