Question

To what does the attraction of atomic nuclei to electronic clouds lead?

Answer 1

With the help of electronic configuration we are as to find
the number of valence electron available in that atom
we can tell the group and the period of that atom in modern periodic table.

Answer 2

`"A field of study called chemistry......"`

Explanation:

All chemistry may be explained on the basis of transfer of, or sharing of, electrons between elements. The modern chemical bond is conceived to be a region of high electron density between 2 positively charged nuclei such that internuclear repulsion is minimized, and a net attractive force between the nuclei and the electronic cloud results.....

The electronic structure of individual elements may thus be used to rationalize and anticipate chemical reactivity.
