The energy level of the outer electron can be represented


The first ionization potentials for Na, K, and Rb are 5.138, 4.341, and 4.166 eV, respectively.

Assume that the energy level of the outer electron can be represented by a hydrogenlike formula with an effective nuclear charge Z'' and that the relevant orbitals are 3s, 4s, and 5s, respectively.

Calculate Z' for these atoms.
