there is nothing called as an electric force...an electron revolves around a nucleus due to the electrostatic fore of attracion between the electron and the proton....any object , to undergo a circlar motion has to experience a centripetal force, which in the case of the atom is provided by the electrostatic force.
Actually there is an electric force of attraction between the electron(s) and proton(S)
attraction
They are located in the electron cloud of an atom. ---------- Electrons (very low mass particles with negative electrical charge) are placed around the nucleus of an atom in electron shells, with different energy levels; because the nucleus contain protons the electrical charge is positive. The electron cloud is a model of quantum mechanics.
The binding energy of an electron is a function of the electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged electrons and the positively charged nucleus. In Iron, atomic number 26, for instance, the nucleus contains 26 protons.
It's because as atomic radius increases, so do the number of electron shells. The full electron shells closer to the nucleus act like a barrier or shield that reduces the pulling force exerted by the Nucleus on the outer electron. Since the nucleus's pulling force is reduced, an electron on the outer shell can escape much more easily.
The masses of the nucleus and electron cloud are balanced
As it has more electron shells between the nucleus and the outermost electron, and as group 1 elements react by losing there outermost electron, the more shielding effect between the nucleus and the electron, the smaller the force of attraction on the electron, so the more readily it will react as less energy is needed to break the bond between the outer electron and the positive nucleus.
Attraction gets smaller.
electrical force exists between electron and nucleus
an electron
Protons have a positive electrical charge.Neutrons are neutral.The atomic nucleus is positive.

A proton
Across teh period, the atomic number increases and subsequently the number of protons in the nucleus increases. hence the extent of electrostatic attraction also varies.
There is a relationship of attraction.
the inter nuclear force of attraction between the nucleus and electron keep it moving in a circular manner around the nucleus
