slater configuration: (1s)2(2s2p)8(3s3p)8(3d)10(4s)2
1 4s e-s 18 3s3p3d e-s 10 2s2p1s e-s
σ4s = (1x0.35)+(18x0.85)+(10x1.0) = 25.65
Zeff 4s = Z - σ4s = 30 - 25.65 = 4.35

How is the concept of effective nuclear charge used to simplify the numerous electron- electron repulsions in a many electron atom?
a) How is the concept of effective nuclear charge used to simplify the numerous electron-electron repulsions in a many-electron atom?Effective Nuclear Charge- the (net) positive charge experienced by an electron in a many electron atom. This charge is not the full nuclear charge. It accounts for the shielding of the nucleus by other electrons in the atom.The nucleus is surrounded by electrons. These electrons are shielded from the nucleus by electron repulsions. The effective nuclear charge is less than the actual nuclear charge because the repulsions of the electrons needs to be taken into account.This is done in the equationZeff = Z (protons) - S (screening constant, the inner core amount of electrons)b) Which experiences a greater effective nuclear charge in a Be atom, the 1s electrons or the 2s electrons?The 1s electrons would have a greater nuclear charge. The number of electrons between the 1s electrons and the nucleus is less than the number of electrons between the 2s electrons and the nucleus. This means the screening constant is larger. When you subtract the larger amount of electrons from the amount of protons, 4, the difference will be less, meaning the value of the effective nuclear charge will be less.
What is effective nuclear charge of beryllium?

What electron in a - sub shell experiences the greatest effective nuclear charge in a many electron atom?
The electron(s) in the 1s sublevel will always experience the greatest force, because they are always the closest and the force increases as the distance decreases.

What do mean by effective nuclear charge?
Effective nuclear charge is the net charge of an electron in an atom.Z(eff) = Z - S where:Z - atomic numberS - number of shielding electrons

What will be the effective nuclear charge of 4s electron of Br?
Bromine has five 4p electrons.
Is it the closer an electron is to the nucleus the more energy it has?
Yes, when an effective nuclear charge increases it does pull the electrons closer to the nucleus. An electron is a negatively charged part of an atom.
Why do the valence electrons in nitrogen experience a greater effective nuclear charge than the valence electrons in beryllium?
valence electron in nitrogen
Is electronegativity dependent on the number of neutrons?
It is dependent on the proton number (effective nuclear charge) and the number of electron shells (row number).
What is the effective nuclear charge experienced by calcium's valence electrons?
as you know we must first have the electron configuration to get the valence electrons. the electron configuration is: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2. we now have the electron configuration but we dont have the v.e. the last electron in the calcium atom are in the 4s orbital so that means that since it the only electron in the 4s orbital we will use it as a v.e. so as to get the v.e. we will subtract the shielding electrons from the nuclear charge shortly expressed by the formula below. Zeff=S-Z in this case Z will be the sum of the shielding electrons and s is the nuclear charge. Zeff=20-18 Zeff=2+ so the effective nuclear charge is 2+ or 2. hope you like it.
Why is the first ionisation energy of hydrogen and oxygen the same?
The outer valence electron lies in a 1s orbital in Hydrogen. The effective nuclear charge of hydrogen can be taken as Z = 1. The electron that is being ionised in Oxygen lies in a 2p orbital which has an effective nuclear charge of Z = 8-(3.4 or 4.5 or something). The point is, this nuclear charge at a greater distance from the nucleus means the energies of the electrons are similar and so ionisation energis required are too similar.
