Question

Compare and contrast the (1) effective nuclear charge and (2) atomic radius for the following? nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Do you expect us to dig for the data?

Explanation:

For the sequence `N,O,F` `Z`, the atomic number increases from `7` to `8` to `9`....And because the nuclear charge increases, and the shielding offered by the valence electrons is INEFFECTIVE for a partially vacant shell, the atomic radius becomes smaller....and you must quote these data...
