Use the following rule set. Slater's rules: write the configuration in groups For an electron in an or group, every other electron in the same group contributes ( for the group), every electron in the shell contributes , every electron in the or lower shells contributes , and electrons in groups to the right contribute . For an electron in an or group, every other electron in the same group contributes , every electron in all groups to its left contributes , and groups to the right contribute . . The electrons of the -series atoms to (configuration ) are considered. Which statements are correct?

  1. A of Sc is 3.00.
  2. B of Mn is the same as that of Sc.
  3. C rises by for each electron added.
  4. D of Zn is 4.35.

Answer: A, C, D

Each extra electron replaces a nuclear proton gain by only screening, so rises by per element. Sc (): 3.00; Mn (): 3.60; Zn (): 4.35. Mn differs from Sc.
