What is Zeff effective.....?? ​

Answer»

Bonjour

★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.
