screening effect and Slater's rule

Screening effect (or shielding effect):

The electron of valence shell (outer most shell) are attracted towards the nucleus also the valence electron are repelled by the electron present in time shell.

This decrease in force of attraction exerted by the nucleus ,on valence electron due to presence of electron in inner shell, is called screening effect or shielding effect.

More are the no. of electron in the inner shell more more will be screening effect.

slater's rules: Slater gave a set of emperical rules for calculating effective nuclear charge z(eff) z* effective nuclear charge acting on a given electron is caluculated by substracting the screening constant from atomic number
(z)

z(eff) = atomic nio. - screening constant

z(eff) = Z- S

Rules
1.are the purpose of estimitating screening constant ns and np electron considered together in a single group while nd and nf electron each from separate group.

2.write down electronic configuration of element in following order and group.

1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 3d 4s 4p 4d 4f

3.contributing made by each electron present in same shell = 0.35

4.contributing made by each electron present in pentivalent shell 0.85

5.contributing made by each electron present in further inside =1.00

6. all electron in a group lying to the left of nd and nf group contribute =1.00

Radial probability distribution curves

Radial probhjjhajajbability distribution curves: The probability of finding the electron is given by the quantity sie^2.By radial probability us probability of finding the electron within small Radial space around the nucleus. volume of spherical shell between radius r and r+dr =4πr^2 and probability of finding the electron will be 4πr^2dr sie^2. radial probability distribution curves are obtained by plotting radial probability at various distance from the nucleus . 1.Radial probability distribution curves for S orbital n=1, l= 0. distance from nucleus here A° is called angstrom. the probability of finding of electron in a shell is maximum at distance r=r° (r not) which is 0.529 A° for H atom. diagram shows that probability plot for 2s has(two region of high probability) or (two peaks) separated by node. we conclude that no. of high probability region in S orbital = n no. of node = ( n-1)

Electronegativity scales and disadvantage of scales and its nunericals

Electronegativity scales: 1.Pauling scale of electronegativity: in diatomic molecule (A-B) ,the bond formed between two atoms A and B will be intermediate between pure Covalent (A-B) and pure ionic character, the bond between A and B will be strong than bond energy increased. if bond (A-B) has been purily covalent than bond energy can be calculated as average bond energy of bond (A-A) and bond (B-B). that means it is equal to bond energy of bond (A-B) E(A-B) = 1/2[ E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] however experiemental value of bond (A-B) more than this value because of difference in electronegativity of A and B the difference ∆ is given by simple expression ∆ = E(A-B) - 1/2 [E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] where E(A-B) is experimental value of bond energy. if Ҳ(A) and Ҳ(B) are the electronegative of elements A and B than Ҳ(A) - Ҳ(B) = 0.18√∆ for numerical ∆ = E(A-B) -[√(E(A-A) ×E(B-B) )] Disadvan...
