प्रश्न
What is the screening effect?
Advertisements
उत्तर
The repulsive force between inner shell electrons and the valence electrons leads to a decrease in the electrostatic attractive forces acting on the valence electrons by the nucleus. Thus the inner shell electrons act as a shield between the nucleus and the valence electrons. This effect is called the shielding effect (or) screening effect.
