The screening effect of inner electrons of an atom can cause

A

A decrease in the ionisation potential

B

An increase in the ionisation potential

C

No effect on the ionisation potential

D

An increase in the attraction of the nucleus to the electrons

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Screening effect i.e., repulsion in between the `e^(-)` if its increases then less amount of energy will required to remove an `e^(-)` from outermost shell.

The energy required to pull the most loosely bound electrons from an atom is known as ionization potential. It is expressed in electron volts. The value of ionization potential depends on three factors :(i) the charge on the nucleus (ii) the atomic radius and (iii) the screening effect of inner electron shells. Ionization potential of Na would be numerically the same as
