Chemistry

consider the isoelectronic ions Cl- and K+. Which ion issmaller?

ssuming the core electrons contribute 1.00 and valence electronscontribute nothing to the screening constant, S, calculate Zeff forthese two ions.

Repeat this calculation using slater's rules to estimate thescreening constant, S. For esoelectronic ions how are effectivenuclear charge and ionic radius related?

k ion is smaller in size Zeff Z S Zeff is the effective nuclear charge on an electron Z is the nuclear charge and S is the screening of that charge on the electron by all the other electrons Assume core electrons S 1 valence electrons S 0 Cl 1s2 2s2p6 3s2 3p6 1s2 2s2p6 S 10 3s2 3p6    See Answer
