Identify the incorrect statement from the following:

Question

Identify the incorrect statement from the following: (A) Zirconium and Hafnium have identical radii of 160 pm and 159 pm, respectively as a consequence of lanthanoid contraction (B) Lanthanoids reveal only +3 oxidation state (C) The lanthanoid ions other than the f0 type and the f14 type are all paramagnetic (D) The overall decrease in atomic and ionic radii from lanthanum to lutetium is called lanthanoid contraction

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Lanthanoids shows general oxidation state +3 but some elements can shows +2 as well as +4

Q. Identify the incorrect statement from the following:

Zirconium and Hafnium have identical radii of $160 p m$ and $159 p m$ , respectively as a consequence of lanthanoid contraction

Lanthanoids reveal only $+ 3$ oxidation state

The lanthanoid ions other than the $f^{0}$ type and the $f^{14}$ type are all paramagnetic

The overall decrease in atomic and ionic radii from lanthanum to lutetium is called lanthanoid contraction

Lanthanoids shows general oxidation state +3 but some elements can shows +2 as well as +4
