Interpretation:
The effective nuclear charge (Z*) has to explained for given Lithium (Li) to fluorine (F) atoms.
Concept Introduction:
Nuclear charge (Z*): The effective nuclear charge generally denoted by (Zeff or Z*) it is the net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom. This word “effective” is used because the shielding effect of negatively charged electron prevents higher orbital electrons experience the full nuclear charge.
Increase and decrease electro negativity: The less vacancy electrons an atoms has the least it will gain of electrons. Moreover the
