What is Zeff effective.....?? |
|
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. |
