Chapter 4, Problem 24QP(choose chapter or problem)
The electron configuration of B is 1s22s22p1. (a) If cach core electron (that is, the Is electrons) were totally effective in shielding the valence electrons (that is, the 2s and 2p electrons) from the nuelcus and the valence electrons did not shield one another, what would be the shielding constant (?) and the effective nuclear charge (Zeff) for the 2s and 2p electrons? (b) In reality, the shielding constants for the 2s and 2p electrons in B are slightly different. They are 2.42 and 2.58, rcspcctivcly. Calculate Zeff for these electrons, and explain the differences from the values you determined in part (a).
