Answer:

Weaker

Explanation:

Since the charges on nucleus and electron are opposite in nature, an attractive force exists between them. It is true in generally, that when objects are made to move closer together in the direction of an attractive force, potential energy decreases (and increases whenever attracting objects are force to move apart).

Here, we are required to determine if the attraction or repulsion grow weaker or stronger.

  • When electrons get closer to the nucleus, the attraction grows stronger.

First, we must establish scenarios when there can be attraction and ones where there can be repulsion.

By the law guiding electric charges; In electrical interactions:

Like poles repel while Unlike poles attract.

  • Also, in the atomic model; the nucleus is positively charged as it contains protons (+vely charged) and neutrons which are uncharged particles.

  • Since the nucleus is positively charged and the electrons revolve round their orbit. Therefore, the force is an attraction force.

  • As we all know that the force of attraction or of repulsion as the case may be is inversely proportional to the distance between the charged particles (the electrons and the nucleus in this case)

  • When an electron gets closer to the nucleus, the distance between the electron and the nucleus reduces; and the force of attraction between the electron and the nucleus increases.

Ultimately, when an electron gets closer to the nucleus, the attraction force will grow stronger due to the reduced distance between the electron and the nucleus.
