A major difference between the two rows of inner transition elements is that the lanthanides?
are radioactive and the actinides are not
What about the complex formation ability of lanthanides as campared to actinides?
describe the complex formation by lanthanides?
Why are scientists uncertain about the electronic structures of the Actinides?
Scientists are uncertain about the electronic structure of the Actinides because they have short lifespans. Some of the actinides have such short half lives that it is impossible to figure out their exact chemistry.
Why are the nuclear configurations of the actinides more important than their electron configurations?
The nuclear structure is more important because the nuclei of actinides are unstable and spontaneously break apart
What is the difference between a singer 201 and 201k sewing machine?
what is the difference between 201 and 201K
A major difference between the two rows of inner transition elements is that the lanthanides?
are radioactive and the actinides are not
Do actinides and lanthanides lose electrons when combining?
Actinides and lanthanides lose electrons and form cations.
Why are lanthanides in period six and actinides in period 7?
Lanthanides have 6 electron shells. Actinides have 7 electron shells.
How many lanthanides and actinides are there?
There are 15 lanthanides (atomic numbers 57-71) and there are 15 actinides (atomic numbers 89-103)
What are the properties of lanthanides and actinides?
The lanthanides and actinides are part of the inner transition metals. Actinides are all radioactive, highly electropositive and tarnish readily in air. Lanthanides burn easily in air, have high melting and boiling points and are strong reducing agents.
The lanthanides and actinides are known as?
Element groups
What about the complex formation ability of lanthanides as campared to actinides?
describe the complex formation by lanthanides?
What is the group number for Lanthanides and Actinides?
Rare Earth elements or lanthanides are placed in the period 6 of the periodic table of Mendeleev. Actinoids are placed in the period 7 of the periodic table of Mendeleev.
What is the major difference between lanthanides and actinides?
Generally speaking, the lanthanides are naturally occurring and stable, although relatively uncommon. The actinides are naturally occurring through uranium; after that, they're synthetic, and all are unstable (radioactive.)
How reactive are lanthanides and actinides metals?
lanthanides and actinides are fairly reactive, but not as much as say, the alkali metals in group 1
Where are landthanides and actinides actinides placed in the periodic table?
Lanthanides and Actinides are placed separately as the properties of these elements is quite different from the elements in periodic table.
What are properties of f block elements?
they are of two types lanthanides and actinides
