QUESTION:
Problem 17E
What are complementary properties? How does electron diffraction demonstrate the complementarity of the wave nature and particle nature of the electron?
ANSWER:
Solution 17E Step 1 The effective nuclear charge increases slightly as we go down a column because the core electrons are more diffused and hence the electron cloud of the core electrons are less able to screen the valence electrons from the nuclear charge.Since Kr comes below Ar in the noble gas family the valence electrons of Krypton should experience a higher effective nuclear charge.
