MCQ 71 Mark
Assertion (A) – In 3d transition elements, the expected decrease in atomic radius is observed from Sc to V, thereafter upto Cu, the atomic radius nearly remains the same.
Reason (R) – As we move from Sc to V, the added 3d electrons only partially shield the increased nuclear charge but upto Cu, the extra electron added to 3d sub-shell repel the 4s electrons and the slight increase in nuclear charge operated in opposite direction and it leads to constancy in atomic radii.
