Tellurium is a period 5 chalcogen. Selenium is a period 4 chalcogen. If the only factor affecting ionization energies was the nuclear charge, then electrons would be easier to remove (ionize) from Se than Te. Experimentally the opposite is true. It takes 941.0 kJ/mol of energy to ionize the outermost electron from Se while it only takes 869.3 kJ/mol to ionize from Te. A good model should account for this. Quantum mechanical calculations do predict this but require access to sophisticated software, large amounts of computing power and technical expertise. Slater suggested that some simple empirical rules that take into account electron electron repulsion (or shielding) could give a good estimate of the effective nuclear charge (Zeff). The Zeff for the outermost electron in Te is . The Zeff for the outermost electrons in Se is . According to Slater's calculation of effective nuclear charge (does or does not) predict the correct ordering of ionization energies for Se and Te. A better means of rationalizing ionization energies is to include the atomic as follows: [Z subscript e f f end subscript over r squared] . For Te, r = 136 pm and for Se r = 117 pm. This new model (does or does not) predict the correct ordering of first ionization energies for Se and Te.

Microtubular fibers that assist in the movement of chromosomes during nuclear division in conjunction with proteins, makes up the small and large organelle pieces that assemble prior to translation three-base nucleotide sequence that can complementarily pair with the functional transcript, allowing a particular material to be brought to a ribosome particular time in the cell cycle when the cell’s systems determine if the cellular conditions are appropriate to continue through the cycle time in the cell’s cycle when proteins are made and organelles are duplicated enzyme that allows proper nucleotide bonding during transcription specific dna sequence which will initiate gene transcription division of the cell’s cytoplasm specific bond that forms between two amino acids when a carboxyl group binds to a amino group three-base sequence that does not code for a particular amino acid a paired organelle which facilitates the formation of movement microtubules time in the cell’s cycle when the microtubular structures exert an equal pressure on the cell’s genetic material
