The magnitude of screening effect depends upon the number of
inner electrons
outer electrons
bond order
Both (a) and (b)
A.
inner electrons
Electrons in an atom can shield each other from the pull of the nucleus. This effect, called the shielding effect, describes the decrease in attraction between an electron and the nucleus in any atom with more than one electron shell. The more electron shells there are, greater is the shielding effect experienced by the outermost electrons. The magnitude of screening effect depends on the number of electrons in the inner shell.
