Does inert pair effect depend on the the number of electrons in "d" and "f" inner core orbitals?I mean if the inner core orbitals are completely filled, they do not shield . And when they are incompletely filled, they shield.Is this correct? Please explain- Regards-HomiA12 batch

THE INERT PAIR EFFECT OF d or f ORBITAL INCREASES WHEN THE ORBITALS AREHALF OR FULL FILLED...BECAUSE HALF FILLED OR FULL FILLED ORBITALS ARE MOST STABLE.....
