D and f subshell k baad lanthanoid contraction weak hojata h

ohh to weak hote hote At tak LC affect nahi karta?

like Tl se Po tak hota hai and then on At it doesnt

Dekho d and f subshell aane k baad wo weak Hota jata hai This can be a reason of ur question

We were being taught the periodic table chapter in that our teacher gave us this diagram where elements from Tl to Po all went under Lanthanide Contrarion and hence the Zeff and I.E changed periodically but in that as well the I.E change due to LC is only till Po... I'll send the photographs of the things this is really messing with my mind 💀

Yea I should have... At that time we had a test and I was just thinking ki abhi bas padha ke likha do test deke achche se padhenge (which is why I didn't revise properly at the time) and now when I am revising properly I have no idea why it's happening

Ok sir

YOO i got an explanation... I got told that since there are 14 elements in the Lanthanoid Series only the 14 elements after Lu are affected by Lanthanoid Contraction, which precisely ends at Polonium and hence At does not undergo LC idk thats what my teacher told me 💀
