Select the false statement below.

Generally speaking, as you go down a group in the periodic table, there is successively greater shielding of the outer-shell electrons by the inner-shell electrons.

Generally speaking, as you go across a period in the periodic table, the effective nuclear charge (Zeff) increases because each successive element contains more protons in the nucleus than the previous element and the outer electrons are all in the same shell as you go across a period.

Generally speaking, the lighter halogens can be predicted to exhibit greater shielding of the outer-shell electrons by the inner-shell electrons than heavier halogens.

Generally speaking, non-metallic elements have greater effective nuclear charge (Zeff) than metallic elements in the same period.

1)The NaCl2 ionic salt does not exist. Which of the followingstatements best explains why?

A. Because the formation of Na2+ is an unfavorable process due tothe great amount of energy required to remove the 2nd electron fromthe Na atom (the 2nd electron would have to be removed from thecore electrons of the Na atom).
B. Because the Cl- anion is too large for there to be two of themattached to one Na+ ion.
C. Because NaCl2 is actually a polyatomic ion with a -1 charge, andnot an ionic salt. In the presence of another Na+ ion, the Na2Cl2salt would form.
D. Because Cl2 has no charge and therefore would not be attractedelectrostatically to the positively charged Na2+ cation.

C. The following process is an endothermic process and representsthe first ionization energy of an atom A:A(g) ? A1+(g) + e1-

Classify each statement about effective nuclear charge, Zeff, as true or false.

In a Be atom, a 1s electron has a greater Z_eff than a 2s electron.

Across a period, as Z_eff increases, atomic size decreases.

Electrons in a p orbital are more effective than those in other orbitals at shielding other electrons from the nuclear charge.

A 1s electron is a Be atom has a smaller Z_eff than a 1s electron in a Li atom.

Effective nuclear charge decreases from left to right across a period on the periodic table.

Effective nuclear charge is dependent on the number of electrons present in an atom.
