Homework #5 Chapter 12 Quantum Mechanics and Atomic Theory
13. Z is the atomic number or number of protons. Zeff is the effective nuclear charge or the nuclear charge after taking into account the shielding caused by electrons in the atom.
14. The ionization energy is the energy it takes to remove an electron from an atom. As one goes from left to right across the periodic table in one row, electrons are added to the same shell. As each electron is added a proton is also added to the nucleus. Because the electrons are added to the same shell the shielding of these electrons on the nucleus is minimal. This causes the effective nuclear charge to go up. The larger the positive effective nuclear charge the tighter the electrons are held to the nucleus causing a greater amount of energy to be needed to remove an electron. As you go down a period you are adding electrons to a new shell. Each new shell causes substantial shielding of the nucleus. In addition, the electrons are farther away from the nucleus causing less energy to be needed to remove a valence electron.
