Options
- ARepulsive interactions are stronger
- BAttractive interactions are stronger
- CRepulsive and attractive interactions are equal
- DRepulsive interactions are absent
Correct answer
A. Repulsive interactions are stronger
Step-by-step solution
in multi-electron atoms, the repulsive interactions among electrons are more important than the attractive interactions.
