- The periodic trends are explained in the terms of two fundamental factors, namely, attraction of extranuclear electrons towards the nucleus and repulsion between electrons belonging to the same atom.
- These attractive and repulsive forces operate simultaneously in an atom.
- This results in two interrelated phenomena called effective nuclear charge and screening effect in an atom.
