Multiple Choice

Which of the diagrams has the stronger attraction to the electrons on the valence shell? Why

Diagram A, Because although B has a greater nuclear charge the there is more distance between the nucleus and the valence shell.

Diagram B, because it has a greater nuclear charge in the nucleus which makes the attraction greater.

Diagram A, because it has a lower nuclear charge making the attraction stronger

Diagram B, Because even though it has fewer energy levels the nuclear charge is greater making a stronger attraction.
