MCQ 421 Mark
Lanthande contraction is due to increase in
Answer
Correct option: A.
(a): As we move through the lanthanide series, $4f$ electrons are progressively filled. The mutual shielding effect of electrons is very little, being even smaller than that of $d$-electrons. The nuclear charge however increases by one at each step increasing the inward pull experienced by the $4 f$ electrons and this tends to decrease in size.

Which one of the following statements concerning lanthanides is false?
  • A
    Most characteristic oxidation state of lanthanides is +3 .
  • The ionic radii of trivalent lanthanides steadily increase with increase in atomic number.
  • C
    All lanthanides are dense metals.
  • D
    Lanthanides are separated from one another by ion exchange methods.
Answer
