Note for OP
+solved @user1 @user2... to close the thread when your doubt is solved. Mention the users who helped you solve the doubt. This will be added to their stats.
Why is there a more "chaotic" decrease in period 2 from Li to B but then a more gradual decrease from there
And why is the decrease in period 3 just more gradual than in period 2
(Table 3.6a)
period 2 has special properties (more pronounced) due to the tiny size and closeness of outer electrons with the nucleus
slaters rule - zeff value is much higher, ie closer to actual Z value
Ohhhh yea I forgot about zeff 🤦‍♂️
Yea I understood it now, thanks a lot sir
