Solution

The correct option is D Z=ZS
The effective nuclear charge can be calculated by using the formula Z=ZS.

Z= Effective nuclear charge

Z= nuclear charge

S= number of screening electrons

Due to the screening effect, the effective nuclear charge is less than the nuclear charge.

Hence, the correct option is D
