Today, I studied slater's rules for calculating the effective nuclear charge. But, one particular line The shielding power of the d and f orbital is lesser in comparison to the p and s orbitals seems to appear in every single book and website I have studied from. Slater's rules does not take into account the orbitals for calculation of . Nevertheless, I don't disagree with the logic behind the statement. Thus, my question is: Do slater's rules actually account for this logic? If they don't, is it faulty?
